I have a pile lying around at work that I used. I think you'll also find that an adapter exists that will convert ultrawide SCSI to 50 pin SCSI. The inverse of one of these: http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/product/cableprodindex.html?sess=no&language=English+US&parentcat=%2fCables%2fTerminators+%26+Converters%2fInternal+SCSI+Converters Remember, when installing new disks. You're going to have to get an SGI disklabel onto the disk partition. This will either require a version of IRIX or a recent version of fdisk.
