I can't help you with prices - sorry. I normally used Adaptec cards but they surely aren't the cheapest. It's also a question of drivers support!
You should be careful when mixing SCSI and IDE. Always when I did that, I had problems when booting the system. I had do to a lot of tricks within the bios and the operating systems. It doesn't have to be a problem, but you should try to get some related infos about your motherboard and your operating system...

hmmm, i have checked the adaptec scsi cards and they are EXPENSIVE indeed. im planning to buy an Asus cd-writer which cost roughly around 55 US dollars. the scsi card cost nearly 100+ US dollars. talking about expensive, heck it is more expensive than the cd-writer itself. im looking for one that cost cheaper around roughly 18 dollars (that is all i can spare) there is one computer store that is close right now, i will have to check it first, i think you have add 12 US dollars with the cd-writer than you can have the SCSI card but im not sure. they are renovating right now until the new year. sigh.
btw,
my mother board is epox with SD ram compatible
1.2 celeron ghz
32mb gforce 2 video card
3 hard disk
1 asus 50x cdrom
sound card
so if worse comes to worse, and i have no more alternatives, than i would just get rid of one of my hard drives, the smallest one. but that if i dont have anymore choices. sigh.
