Yes, they have said that the demand for scsi devices have gone way down since they started to incorporate Burn-Proof into their IDE drives. SCSI devices are very expensive. With that expense and the demand way down, 12x scsi was to be the last SCSI model. From what I've heard.

I don't know if I trust that quote. There's no hard proof evidence that Plextor actually said that. I emailed Plextor sales about it. Here is the email:

At this time we have no answers on where Plextor is going with it's scsi
line.
Please keep checking our site for any new releases or updates.

Thank you,

I read a quote from Plextor at www.cdrinfo.com that Plextor will no longer
be making drives with a SCSI interface. Is this true?

They didn't say either way which would lead me to believe that the quote is false.
