Does anybody know which PCI cards with wide SCSI NCR (Symbios) controllers
are on the market?

I'm trying to locate such a card (actually, three of them) for use in three
ASUS P55T2P4 motherboards in connection with nine 2GB Quantum wide-SCSI ATLAS
drives.

Preferably, it should be obtainable in either Germany or The Netherlands
(Belgium might do, in a pinch).

Any ideas?  Is this a bad idea?  Will it still boot from SCSI afterward?

P.S. If one could choose between an ASUS P55T2P4 motherboard and a SOYO 5VA2
     (both with P133) for running Linux; which one would you pick (and why)?
     I tend to favour the ASUS, but maybe I'm wrong.
