This plugs into the back of any IDE drive (Hard drive, CD RW, DVD RW, etc) and allows you to connect it to a scsi bus, as if it were a scsi device. This is the 50-pin version (operates at 20MB/s speeds) - perfect for a blizzard PPC scsi chain, and I'll include a 68-50 pin adapter to allow you to use it on a CSPPC scsi chain.

Great way to connect top speed IDE devices to your SCSI bus. Another advantage is that, should your SCSI CDRW start playing up, it is much cheaper, easier and more reliable to replace it with a new IDE device than to hunt around trying to find an (increasingly rare) SCSI replacement.

I've been using it with a CDRW/DVDRW combi device on my CSPPC. I have two, so am getting rid of this one.

Price - £25 including UK shipping.
Includes the bridge, still boxed and with instructions. Also includes a 68-50 pin adapter.
