Seems to work pretty well (I > haven't really been the system as much as I should :-). The Diamond Fireport 40 is fairly easy to find... around $169 for a UW card isnt bad. Adaptec's at the local shops go for around $230. Another local place has the Asus SC875(same chip as Diamond) for $135. (AJR Technologies, www.ajr.com)
