You cans till find 50 pin working SCSI drives cheaper then the cost of any 3rd party interface could be made for, so why bother? I get the feeling most of the people asking are too cheap to shell out $20 for a functional 50 pin SCSI drive and therefore would not bother spending more for an IDE interface let alone pay somebody to design/sell one with a profit.
Where are you finding these $20 SCSI drives? On eBay they are typically between $50-$100. No way I'd spend that kind of money on something that doesn't have much usable life left. Adapting modern storage technologies to work on older interfaces makes much more sense, in my opinion.
