Depending on the capacity you're looking for, it may be more economical to get
an IDE card and IDE drive instead.

Most narrow SCSI drives today are priced from $40 for 2/4GB to $200+ for
9/18GB (check www.pricewatch.com for latest pricing.) Be aware that there are
a lot of SCA (80 pin) drives being sold "cheaply" which will require 80pin to
50pin adapters if your want to use them in your system.

Cost of IDE card (ACard UDMA66) will run you around $50 on eBay, and 40GB IDE
drive will cost about $80 from most vendors.
