Hi

So as I see it the RASCSI needs to have a dedicated Raspberry Pi  which makes
it bulky and much more expensive than the BlueSCSI. Also the BlueSCSI version
I bought was faster than the standard BlueSCSI apparently, ie uses a faster
CPU. The packaging appears much smaller which may not be an issue if you are
looking to locate in 5.25b
 slot on the U60.

The BlueSCSI firmware at present does not support luns, but does support
multiple disks, so you could have ID0-3 easily.

As you say the CD slot and connector would make the most sense to use.
