Title says it all: Is anyone using SCSI drives with a recent model Mac? I have a SCSI board in my G4 that I put in originally so that I could transfer files out of my old Power Computing clone when I upgraded. Currently I'm not using it (the old SCSI drive was only 300 MB; it's not worth keeping connected). I guess most people use FireWire for external drives these days, but I'm a bit leery of that since I use a FireWire audio interface (MOTU 828). I'm needing an external drive to take up the overflow from my internal drive to and serve as an archive, something on the order of 200 GB. Would it be worth my while to look for a SCSI drive, or should I forget it and stick to FireWire drives?

SCSI drives are more expensive and if they propose a faster service, the toll to do so is high, usually you'll encounter only these system in some high end markets like video editing for exemple. Not because it's not worth, just because a RAID SATA or a RAID IDE for exemple are way less expensive and enough for most uses in audio.
Does Anyone Still Use Scsi Drives
