Sup all. Just upgraded my comp, and need a good Hard Drive. PREFERABLY, larger than 20 Gb, but less is alright. Needless to say, I'm not bursting with money, so I can't pay an exorbitant amount of money. Under $75 would be best, but I can spend at most $100. Thanks!

I'm also looking for a PCI SCSI adapter card. I don't care about the cable, I already have one (My new computer doesn't have a SCSI card on it). I ONLY CARE IF IT WORKS OR NOT!!!!! Please let me know. Thank you!

I have a bare Adaptec 29160 card. This card worked good till it was removed two weeks ago for an up grade to an LSI DC390U3W card in my girls computer.

$50 shipped priority w/insurance.

I do have heatware under my user name.

Sorry, but a better card is listed on www.pricewatch.com for $20 shipped. If you can beat that...............

What I need for the SCSI card is Wide Ultra2 SCSI connections (50-Pin, I think)

Let me know!

The price you showed is not for a U160 card. The cheapest one is listed for $69 plus shipping. At the same place.

I might move a little on price. But not a give away.

Sorry to bother you.

I don't want an Ultra160 SCSI card. I just want one that'll handle Wide Ultra2 Hard Drives. I don't want RAID, SCSI-3, or anything like that.

Just. a. Wide. Ultra2. SCSI. PCI. Adapter. Card.

I don't care if an Ultra160 card'll handle them, (though I don't know if that's true or not), the Ultra160'll be too expensive.
