Mostly just for older (legacy) equipment.  I've still got one CD-R
burner, an HP scanner, and some DAT drives which use SCSI.  All of
these are 5-10 years old.

Newer equipment has moved to other standards, almost all
serial-bus of one sort or another (SCSI's parallel-bus architecture
doesn't play well, or cheaply, at high speeds).  SATA, SAS, Fiber
Channel, USB, Ethernet etc. are much more common these days.
