Look in some of the magazines like BYTE or PC WORLD.  Two companies that I know of that have SCSI controllers are Hard Drive International and Shamrock.  I
believe they both have 800 numbers (call 1-800-555-1212 for information).  Speak to their techical people to verify compatibility with your drive.

From what I've heard, SCSI controllers are not presently compatibly with OS2.  I believe it's that a SCSI controller has an on-board BIOS while OS2 includes its own HD bios which will talk to a standard controller, i.e. MFM, RLL, ESDI, IDE, but not SCSI.

Good luck.
