The Tekram 390F (UW, 40MB card) works great in FreeBSD, I got one from
techstore.com for $84, the UW2 card from Tekram is $138, although im not
sure how well it works with FreeBSD. Where can you get an Adaptec 2940UW2
for $160? I don't even look at Adaptec anymore because they prices are so
high, and last time I looked just a 2940UW went for closer to $300, although
the price may be lower now.
