I did a search and was surprised to not see this here yet...

The lunatics responsible for ZuluSCSI have come up with a way to add wifi to their ZuluSCSI emulator, which supposedly includes support for Classic OS all the way back to 7.1. All you need is SCSI on your mac.

It apparently uses the DaynaPORT SCSI network driver:

I'm just reading this now as I am researching a zuluSCSI for my new Roland S760 since you can't get SCSI2SDs anymore. I saw this and it blew my mind.

Who's gonna be the guinea pig to test it all out?
(edit: I say lunatics in the most loving sense of the word, these guys are awesome)

Apparently their "blaster" version will support FastSCSI up to almost 20mb/sec. So that could be an option for folks with faster scsi bus available.

read that yesterday too,

Ultra-Fast SCSI (narrow FAST20), with theoretical speeds up to 20 MB/s. However, real-world performance tends to be around:

Read speeds up to ~18 MB/s

Write speeds up to ~11 MB/s

thats even faster than BlueSCSI v2
Supports Ultra‑SCSI FAST20 sync up to 18 MB/s (with overclock)

Overclock mode yields around:

16 MB/s read, 10 MB/s write (Adaptec 2940W Mac setup)

this will breathe new life into Pro Tools III NuBus Pro Tools, Emagic Logic, Cubase Audio or StudioVision Retro Rigs!
