Hi Ken,

After digging on the Net some more, I came across:

http://www.blackfire.com.au/ide2scsi.html

problem:  these folks are in Australia, which is not a close source (since I
am in the USA).

They list them at $99 AUD, which according to current exchange rates, is
about $60 USD (plus shipping).

Assuming I can find a US source, the price might even be less.

Will keep digging some more...

Cordially
