We have been using Adaptec 2940UW's and 2940U's with these cards ever since 2.1.5, and there haven't been any problems with them so far. As an example, we run the following combinations: Gigabyte 586HX with a Cyrix 150+ and a 2940UW with an IBM DCES 1 Gig SCSI-2 drive, Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 B, FBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE Gigabyte 586HX with a Cyrix 150+ and a 2940U with a DEC 2-Gig SCSI-2 drive, Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 B, FBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE (soon to be 2.2.2-RELEASE) Gigabyte 586ATV (VX) with a Cyrix 166+ and a 2940U with a DEC 2-Gig SCSI-2 drive, Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 B, FBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE Asus P55T2P4 with a Cyrix 166+, Adaptec 2940U and a Seagate 1-Gig SCSI-2, Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 B, FBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE ______________________________________________________________ -Gary Margiotta Voice: (973) 835-9696 TBE Internet Services Fax: (973) 256-4605 http://www.tbe.net E-Mail: gary@tbe.net
