Hi there! Congrats on a seriously nice trash find! SCSI2SD might work with adaptors, but you won't have a good time with it. I personally would suggest getting regular old hard drives for them.

The Octane uses a drive sled and old 80 pin SCA drives. It's very different from the 50 pin connector on scsi2sd and a faster connection too! The Octane sleds can be 3d printed. There is an early version on Thingiverse, but I know someone has a better version with the handle and everything. Ian Mapleson's website has a list of good choices for Octane drive, which can be ebay'd for a reasonable price.

As for the Fuel, I don't have one! I wish I did It also uses a later SCSI revision. It's likely you'll want a regular drive for it as well. I don't think it uses a drive sled at least. Both of these machines can run regular platter drives faster than the supported bandwidth on scsi2sd. Good luck, and keep us updated!

Just to make things more difficult, for the Fuel, you will need to find 68 pin SCSI drives. I have tried a 68 pin to 80 pin adapter and no luck, but others have tried different ones and they worked, sorry, don't have links... So for the 68 pin drive, best to find a 15K RPM / 300GB drive, which will set you back around $250+ for each drive, it can hold two, maybe three if you want to tuck one in where the DVD goes or the other empty slot.. But think that it would get too hot and the box is temperamental  at best when it comes to the environmental monitoring. Also you might want to replace the power with an ATX compatible power supply as I have heard about a lot of power unit failures. Search the forum.
