You didn't mention which Mac you have, but since you are considering buying
a Jasmine (I assume it's SCSI) HD, I will assume that you have a Mac with
a SCSI port.

I remember reading this past summer in Mac {User, World, Week, Today} about a 
card that can be installed in the HD20 to upgrade it to a HD20SC.

The card wasn't cheap, as I recall, but it was cheaper than buying a new
hard disk.

I don't know who the manufacturer of the card is (and the magazines are at
work, not here at school).  Anybody else read about this?
