I have an NCR SCSI host adapter (differential SCSI) board in my Tower. This is the board that was designed for an external, and not internal, drive. Can this board interface to the inexpensive SCSI drives I'm seeing advertised advertised these days? I'm not adverse to putting together some simple glue logic if that's necessary to convert the differential lines to single-ended. Carrying this question on a bit further, what does a "host adapter" signify in the SCSI world? With such an adapter, is the machine set to talk to any SCSI device, or is there another layer of controller required? Thanks for the info. -- John R.
