    I'm getting a mac pro, and I plan to run Parallels with XP. The reason for this is that I still do some DVD work, and need XP to run the authoring software. This software outputs to an old DLT drive, the tapes from which are used for replication. I would love to get rid of the old XP machine, but the DLT drive is SCSI only. Is there any workaround to get a SCSI card to work with a new Mac Pro?

    Do USB to SCSI converters exist? Do PCIe SCSI cards exist? If not, you're out of luck, I guess.

    I'll look around.

    This is all I could find on short notice.

    Yeah, here's another possibility.

    So it's basically a $110 recycling fee to get rid of the old PC, and googling around it seems the results are spotty with the Mac Pro.

    Are there any for 80-pin SCSI? I looked through the reference site and couldn't find any.
