I was wondering about using SCSI backplanes from servers, the ones
with standard cables, with regular SCSI cards.

I know many have a proprietary type connector that usually snaps in,
but many also have a standard 68-pin cable. Would those just work if
I simply connected them to a regular PCI SCSI card in a PC? Does
anyone know of any particular ones that will work this way?

Thanks.

I'm strictly guessing here, but probably.

Might try comp.periphs.scsi.
