Firewire - SCSI

[ByteBandit]

Hey everyone,

I’m not sure if this is the best place to put this … I’m trying to find an SCSI to Firewire adapter (preferably the RATOC version) and I wondered if anyone happened to have one that they’d be happy to part with?


Thanks

Just check eBay for some offers. There are some to be had at the moment. Yes, they are insanely expensive.
Looking myself for a similar adapter, but rather the SCSI/USB variant. There are even more offers for these on eBay but the pricing is absolutely insane and unaffordable as well.

Speaking from a non-programmer position, I hope someone capable might some day implement a "reverse" BlueSCSI that enables using the USB connection to allow for communication between SCSI devices and modern standard USB (preferably USB3*). See for reference:

Would it be easier just to put a SCSI card in your machine? What is your use case (laptop, desktop, etc and what external device)?

It would absolutely be easier, yes. But I still would like to find one of these adapters located somewhere in Europe.
