What would be the usage in recent stuff? If theres none ill just dump it.

Most SCSI is legacy and only really intended to replace failing hardware. SCSI is mostly used for hard drives. Most new enterprise hardware has moved to SAS.

If you can get drivers and everything for it, I'd consider selling it on ebay. SCSI was never really cheap so it would probably be worth the time to list it.

I only have the adapter and the cable brand new is 9$ shipping included on ebay and a 36 gigs hdd for 15$

sounds like a garbage worthy item then

Yeah those are probably 10K RPM HDDs but still not worth crap anymore. Leave it out for scrap.

Oh boy. "Fast SCSI" = 10MB/s = worthless.

Wrigleyvillain · Apr 27, 2011

It's a bit disingenuous and unfair to just point out one of the oldest and slowest iterations. Ultra 3 SCSI was 160MB/second to point out another (and by no means the high end).

He specifically linked a Fast SCSI card.

the once mighty now lay in pieces
btw : any thoughts on whats going to come after sata3 ?

Maban · Apr 27, 2011

Sata 4? Perhaps they will switch from 8b10b to an encoding scheme with less overhead.

Ah i didn't click or even read that right thought 50 pin external...
