BlueSCSI Ultra & Ultra Wide

We're starting the year with a bang! Today we're announcing two new versions of BlueSCSI: Ultra and Ultra Wide. These new models support faster ultra wide SCSI connections to better support more high-end workstations and SCSI cards. These are more than iterative updates and continue our 100% original hardware designs and GPL firmware.


BlueSCSI Ultra and Ultra Wide are next-generation, open-source SCSI emulators designed for higher-end vintage systems, delivering faster SD card performance, new audio capabilities, and expanded hardware features while preserving BlueSCSI's simplicity and ease of use. Ultra supports 50-pin Narrow SCSI, while Ultra Wide adds 68-pin Wide (and upcoming SCA) support for workstations and servers from the early-to-mid 1990s. Both models feature an integrated RP2350B, USB-C, 16 MB of flash, I²S CD audio (via an optional audio board), web-based configuration via front-panel integration, enhanced power protection, and significantly faster SD transfers through dynamic voltage switching. These are not incremental updates, but a major evolution of BlueSCSI's original hardware platform—continuing its GPL firmware tradition and commitment to open, user-friendly design.

Has anyone been successful at SASI support?

Ultra are really targeted to mid 90's systems, but any V2/Ultra should have the same compatibility - i know people have used them successfully on X68000 SASI among others. See https://github.com/BlueSCSI/BlueSCSI-v2/wiki/Compatibility for a list of ones people have tested.
