I bought this to run a Umax PowerLook scanner from an eMac. Software installed easily and I have had no problems scanning.

5.0 out of 5 stars I use this with my HP SCSI scanner, October 14, 2004

This review is from: Adaptec 1856600 USBxchange Kit (Personal Computers)
It performs very well. Be careful with the driver installation. You have to install the Adaptec driver... otherwise the system will recognize the adapter as a storage device.
Do not use this for storage devices...

1.0 out of 5 stars Think twice, April 9, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Adaptec 1856600 USBxchange Kit (Personal Computers)
This device is anything but plug and play (check out the Google Groups pages). I was a bit wary installing this so I downloaded the latest driver for my unit and installed per the detailed 12+ step instructions on their web page. The end result was the "blue screen of death" forcing me to power cycle the computer just to get it to reboot (yes, I tried Crtl-Alt-Delete, but that didn't work). This began a 2 week series of try this, try that emails.

I use a brand new Dell Dimension 8400 desktop with Windows XP Professional SP2.

The end result is I that I still can't use my scanner.

A search of Google Groups indicates similar problems with Adaptec's USB2xchange.

Be warned.
