No, it's an Adaptec Controller, and it don't work for crap:
gndrsh:root {241}# man 4 adv
...
DESCRIPTION
This driver provides access to the 8bit SCSI bus connected to the Ad-
vanced Systems Products, Inc. ASC900, ASC1000, ASC1090, ASC1200,
ASC3050, and ASC3150 host adapter chips. The following tables list the
AdvanSys products using these chips, their bus attachment type, maximum
sync rate, and the maximum number of commands that can be handled by the
adapter concurrently.
Connectivity Products:
Adapter Bus Floppy MaxSync Commands Footnotes
ABP510/5150 ISA No 10MHz 240 1
ABP5140 ISA PnP No 10MHz 16 1, 3
ABP5142 ISA PnP Yes 10MHz 16 4
ABP920 PCI No 10MHz 16
ABP930 PCI No 10MHz 16 5
ABP930U PCI No 20MHz 16
ABP930UA PCI No 20MHz 16
ABP960 PCI No 10MHz 16 2
ABP960U PCI No 20MHz 16 2
No AVA 2904's in there, and like someone else already posted, these are
SCSI cards for running scanners mostly... They are kinda a PCI version
of the AIC-6260/6360 chip used on the Adaptec AH152x, 1504, etc.
