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.
According to some advertisements in the German computer magazine c't (Heise Verlag)
01/97:
pg. 403: Comptronic Hardware
Eichholz 35
20459 Hamburg
Telefon 40 319 43 75/79
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.
