|I am considering purchasing the ASUS SC200 PCI SCSI adapter. |This card is not listed in the Release notes. However |it is driven by the NEC53c810 chip and the NEC53c810 card, not |the chip, is listed as a compatible device. | |What are my chances that the ASUS SC200 will work (it cost |considerably less that other cards? Before I purchased mine about a year ago, I heard good reports from the FreeBSD lists about the support and stability of the ncr 810 driver. Since then, I've been very satisified with the card, and for $70 (then) you couldn't beat it. Maybe that's still true. I've got a SCSI ZIP drive hanging off it. With a SCSI motherboard BIOS (e.g. Award) like I've got, you can even boot off of it. Randall Hopper rhh@ct.picker.com
