A few years back I picked up a couple of the ACARD SCSI-IDE bridges for bout $20 each. At a local electronic shop I found an IDE-SD card bridge.

Using that combination I put a 2GB card in my IIsi. One of the nice things is that it makes the system near silent.

I wish I had more spare time on my hands. Microcontrollers are getting so powerful these days, it would be easy to build a custom hard drive emulator.

What I would really like is a SCSI-iSCSI bridge. I saw some a few years back that bridg that allowed you connect a SCSI target to an iSCSI SAN. I want the other way. Connect a SCSI HBA to an iSCSI SAN.

This would be a great application for Marvell's GuruPlug....
