IIRC, it's a different chip (789x AFAIR, as opposed to 7870 for the 2940 and 7880 for the 2940UW). I don't know what the difference between the chips is though. You might want to ask our CAM gurus, or look it up on Adaptec's web site. > Symbios is really great and cheap thing. But they are PCI. OK. If you can lay your hands on an Adaptec 1542, it should work fine. It's the only ISA/VLB SCSI controller I have any experience with (which doesn't mean it's the only good one). ISTR there are a few bugs in our 1542 support, but I haven't paid any attention to it for some time so I may be wrong. I've run -stable successfully on a few boxen equipped with 1542s, but not recently.
