speaking of IDE, does anybody know of a good SCSI target that lets you plug in 1 or more IDE drives to it? I have some older unix oriented hardware that I'd love to put boatloads of disk on, yet find IDE's price advantage so much greater than SCSI... Since I can almost get 2x the disk space with IDE than for similar SCSI (I know the SCSI is a little faster/better higher quality, which is why I said similar), this might be a viable option. Unfortunately, thinking about what it would take to build such a beast makes me fear that it would be >> $200. Warner
