 * I have a question regarding some server setup;
 * I'm planning to use the Adaptec AHA-3940UW PCI adapter in combination
 * with two Quantum AtlasII QM34550ALSW 4.5 GB UW SCSI-3 harddisks.

3940UW and Atlas-II is a great combination.  Just one thing you need to 
be careful, make sure you get the LXY4 firmware of the AII.  You
won't be able to find firmware upgrades if you gut LXQ1 or LXY1 (the
only firmware upgrades found on ftp.quantum.com are for narrow AIIs).
If you get LXQ1 like me, expect data losses and other unpleasant
consequences under heavy load.

(I called Quantum tech support, they said they'll let a technician
 call me but they never did....)
