I see that PCem can emulate a SCSI adapter, so would it be possible to pass through the SCSI traffic to the actual host SCSI bus? (at least on Linux, where we can read/write to the SCSI device, e.g. /dev/sg0)
Here's my use case:
I have a binary dump of a tape that contains data on it, but I'm not able to decode its format, and therefore can't extract any files from it. I do, however, know that it was written using a very specific software for DOS, which I can run in the emulator. Within Linux, I can also emulate a SCSI tape drive (at the kernel level) and "load" the data into it. All I need is for the emulator (running DOS) to be able to communicate with the "real" SCSI hardware that will feed it the tape contents. Is this possible?
Is it possible to have SCSI passthrough?

You can do so in VMWare Workstation.
