I've always been happy with my Tekram DC-390F, which is based on the NCR/Symbios 53c875. I've also got a bunch of Compaq servers with integrated 53c875's which work flawlessly with FreeBSD as well. How do these new chips apparently made by Tekram compare to the Symbios and even Adaptec chips as far as performance and reliability go? If they're at least as good, or better, I'll probably invest in another Tekram card when I decide to get some U2 devices. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
