Over 50 companies have made their PCI products available on Power
Macintosh. Among these are some companies like:

  qLogic
  Adaptec
  DPT
  ATTO
  WD
  FWB

(These are just the ones that make Mac-compatible PCI SCSI controllers,
contrary to the posting above).

I found the other assertions to be completely unfounded, it is a very rare
SCSI device that I can't plug into my Mac.  In our office alone we have
drives from Quantum, IBM, Conner, Micropolis, Seagate, plus CDROM drives
from Sony, Matsushita, Hitachi, Panasonic, and JVC. These all work on the
Mac.
