SCSI Data Recovery
My old server died and I bought a new Dell server. My old computer had scsi drives. How can I recover the data off of this drive? I do not have a computer with scsi interface. Is there a portable cable that will work? I have no clue as to how to get this data back. Thanks in advance for your help.

If it used a PCI-X based PERC card and your drives were connected using a scsi cable (not a backplane), you can try the PERC card in any system with a PCI or PCI-X slot and hook up the drives to it. If you however had a system with a integrated (into the motherboard) raid controller and/or using a backplane you're going to need quite a bit more than that.
You could always look into a data recovery company, or just restore from your last backup-to-tape (after connecting/moving the tape drive to your new server).
