My problems with SCSI could be related to the fact that I'm a strictly-PC guy, and every time I've messed with SCSI I've wound up wanting to poke my eye out with a fork. Passive-vs-active termination, some devices only happy with certain ID's, eleventy-billion and one flavors of SCSI, all of which are incompatible, pick your flavor of SCSI pass-through emulation out of this selection of incompatible software... yeah.

The upside in your case, provided you're not using a RAID array, everything should be hunky-dory with a $15 IDE expansion card or two.
