Actually, I forgot to mention that there are two more target drivers 
available for download as well. One of them can be especially interested 
for you, because it should work with SAS (I have a report with coming 
CDBs from this transport, but have no hardware to check).

  - Target driver for InfiniBand SRP 
http://scst.sourceforge.net/target_srp.html

  - Target driver for LSI/MPT cards 
http://scst.sourceforge.net/target_lsi.html. This driver was developed 
for parallel SCSI, but also should work with SAS and Fibre Channel 
transports.

They can be downloaded from the SCST SVN by using command:

$ svn co https://scst.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scst

They were not released as a separate packages, because their authors 
preferred that.
