Also, they cost less. Any > word? We're using two Tekram U2W controllers (don't know the exact model number) in a fileserver at a customer, each of them carrying four U160 10krpm disks. The controllers are based on symbios 895 chips. They work great. They don't support U160, though, but the 80 Mbyte/s is still more than enough for that type of usage. You have to connect a _lot_ of disk to a single controller (and also use them all at once) to really need U160.
