you're correct...
what I meant to say was that I will use both channels of
the Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapter for 160 MB
devices. I use the dual 3Coms --1 for intranet, the
other for wideband to the net....
I need a third SCSI bus for the slow stuff (CDROM,
DVD-RAM, etc). The cheap and dirty Tekram, if one of the
drivers hits it, would do the trick.
