OK, absent a working solution to reading an install CD on my G3/266, I've decided that I need to try and backup the existing HD, to copy that back to a replacement. USB is the obvious, and it has 3 PCI slots of course.

So, next question is, does anyone know of a PCI USB card (don't mind how many ports it has) which is compatible? There's one on eBay (PC Concepts) but the seller is a jerk - takes the money, issues a shipping number, and never ships.

The G3 isn't in a place I can reach it with a network.

On edit: It's running Mac OS 9.0

That looks like it could be perfect for the job - I even see what I guess are extensions which may be right for this: USB_Card_Support_1.4.1

I think I'll give that a try!
Thanks!
