I know for a fact that PC164 will work with "875" [UW] Symbios
controllers.  I am able to use "895" controllers (LSI and Tekram) in both
PWS and 164LX.  So I feel there is a chance they would work.  But I
wouldn't promise it until I've seen it myself.

Matt J., what's the "nicest" controller you've used in your PC164?
