Very good card, well supported by everyone in sight, and they make their programming info known, so the guys writing the code will not suffer either. I do not work for Adaptec, just a happy customer. (My motherboard is a Dual P5/200 with an AHC2940UW equivalent chip on board). M "Steven P. Donegan" wrote: > Well Santa was nice to me so I'm now in the market for a nice fast SCSI > solution.
