I'm looking for a well-supported ExpressCard or PCMCIA/CardBus SCSI

doesn't seem to be supported (it's previously supported by the aha152x
driver).
Any ideas are welcomed, other than 'just use a desktop.' I am not
sure a USB or Firewire to SCSI bridge will work for what I need, which
is connection to an audio-capable DDS2 drive (SGI Firmware
Seagate/Conner/ArDAT Peregrine 4326 that is from an SGI system). Yeah,
I know I can use DATman on IRIX (I have a pair of O2's and a purple
Indigo2 w/ SolidIMPACT), but going forward I'd like to use my laptop.
if it wasn't a laptop, I'd suggest looking for a NCR/Symbios/LSI based
SCSI card with a 53c8xx chip, but I've only ever seen these on ISA and
PCI, never on expresscard or pcmcia
parallel SCSI was long dead when pci-express came out, and expresscard
is based on PCI-E, so the odds of finding anything there are really slim
... and cardbus/pcmcia has been dead for several years.
