I have an Astra 600S scanner with SCSI hookup. What is the easiest way to connect this to a new Dell PC that does not have a SCSI card?

I got a chuckle from that answer. The scanner didn't already come with a card?Generally most scsi hardware will come with a controller card also.

well I didn't see where they said they bought it NEW. Yes all new things come with hardware, but I didn't see new in the post. They just need to install a scsi controller card is all. Had one in here but took it out cuz got another whole computer scsi. Terri
