From what I understand of adapters and such, the 2940U driver should allow the 2940UW to perform at full capacity, is this true? I am using the on-board equivalent of the 2940UW (AIC-7880) with good performance and no problems, on 2.2.6-RELEASE. The Ultra-2 Adaptecs are not yet supported in -RELEASE, but the 2940UW /is/.
