Would it even matter ? Does FreeBSD use the same SCSI controller "guts" for all PCI SCSI cards ? I am looking at Buslogic BT-956C (F/W) and BT-948 (Ultra Narrow), but of courese I cannot find any documentaion (as of 2.2.6) that the BT-948 is supported. Is anyone using it ?? I'm curious enough to find a solution bad enough to risk getting burned (again), and try the Buslogic card.
