If you ever get them to work, let me know.  I'd start lining up a buyer and
buy a few Maxtor SCSI drives and use Christer Bernerus' Adaptec AHA1540
SCSI disk and tape driver for AOS 4.3.  It really works great.

These are literally a dime a dozen, if you know of the right place.
Any "Mom 'n Pop" PC-clone store will sell rails for drives.
