    Need to test SCSI laptop HD's

    I need to test a ton of SCSI laptop HD's. I use a converter to test IDE laptop drives,but can't seem to find one for SCSI laptop drives. What can I use to test SCSI laptop HD's. Thanks

    it would appear that they are both SCSI-2 drives.A quick search for scsi2 to ide adapters came up with nothing but links to dead links, but you may have some success looking for old sparcbook accessories. Apparently these sparcbooks used these 2 drives and at one point there was an adapter to use them on ide.

    What's the connector on them like? Since its a laptop drive, I'm guessing its smaller than a standard 50pin SCSI connector. You may be able to get an adapter to go to standard SCSI and stick them on a simple SCSI controller. You can find low end SCSI adapters pretty cheap. If your boss wants em tested, he can spring for one.
