I've never heard of modern NCR/Symbios chips on the MB from anyone but Apple, but that doesn't mean anthing other than I've only seen Adaptec on the specs for PC MB's. As cheap as the NCR/Symbios PCI cards are, one would think the chips are so cheap a MB designer couldn't resist. Asus is an excellent source of NCR/Symbios PCI SCSI cards. Maybe that's what Doug was thinking of? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
