I think you misunderstood. It's a real SCSI->IDE bridge that actually
turns an IDE drive into a real SCSI drive. There are no software
dependencies involved, it acts like a real SCSI drive. And when you
remove the adapter, it's a normal IDE drive again.
I used the adapter to use the disk on my Centris 650 and when I had
to copy files from my main computer onto it, I just removed the adapter
and hooked it up via USB.
