5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless connection - PC and MAC, February 17, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Entrega CON-USB-SCSI USB to SCSI Converter for MAC or PC (Personal Computers)

This device has worked perfectly and flawlessly for both my legacy MAC and my Dell PC; I use it with an Iomega SCSI Jaz drive to back up these as well as my kid's iMac. Installation doesn't get any simpler. One caveat: the SCSI drive is just as tempermental as it always was - don't blame the converter! E.g., the drive must be on and loaded before your computer is turned on for the drive and "removable media" to be recognized at start-up; from there, the removable media can be removed, swapped, etc. At least that's been my experience.

2.0 out of 5 stars Barely works on a Mac, June 5, 2002

This review is from: Entrega CON-USB-SCSI USB to SCSI Converter for MAC or PC (Personal Computers)

I tried to use it with a Jaz and a Zip drive on a Mac. It barely works. Only good for small file transfers. Large file transfer (10-20MB) fail due to "write errors" across the SCSI bus. Works better with a PC but the manufactor is no longer supporting this item (so NO OS X support)
