Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm looking to buy a fairly inexpensive ISA bus-mastering SCSI-II card-the Adaptec 1542 is appealing, but a little pricy for an ISA system. I've seen the Siig i540 at Computer City. From news and mailing list research that I've done, it *appears* that the card is really an Advansys. Finding many decent (non PIO, busmastering + bios) ISA SCSI cards has been a bit of a challenge. ;-) I've looked around for Buslogic ISA cards, but haven't been able to find any. If anyone has any comments about the Advansys support (I have the 2.2.2 cdroms) as well as info about where a decent ISA card can be had, I'd much appreciate hearing from you. TIA, John Szumowski
