It may not help you now, but the Intel DK440LX has a dual UW controller integrated (aic7895) on the motherboard. I'm only using scsi0 on mine, but I would guess that if you popped the MoBo in a really large chassis with a big disk compartment and lots of power and fans and all that, you could build a pretty awesome eight+ disk server and conserve PCI slots. Since I don't have disks on both controllers I couldn't tell you much about parallelized access and performance, but one might hope to get pretty excellent throughput. rgb Robert G.
