I have been looking at upgrading to a SCSI for some time and
was looking for a good SCSI controller. I have been looking
for a good, reasonably inexpencive SCSI controller. Right
now I am looking to get a external Zip Drive (SCSI) but I
eventually want to upgrade my hard drive (internal) up to
SCSI also (I don't want to corner my self here - I want
expandibility). I found one today at Best Buy (they just
started selling SCSI - here anyway) but have never heard of
it. It is called the SIIG UltraSCSI Pro PCI, Model number
#SCSI360P. It is priced at $99. On the box it says that it
is compatible with just about everything (including
Unixware) and does have a bios on the controller with both
internal and external connections. Does anyone know anything
about this card? In particular, will this work with Linux (I
have Redhat 4.2 with Kernel 2.0.30)? I have decided not to
go with Adaptec because from what I have heard they don't
really support Linux (I know, I know... they do work on
Linux but they don't "support" Linux"). So far I have been
looking for a good BusLogic (Mylex) that will fit my needs.
If the SIIG won't work, could someone give me some
recommendations please?
Thanks for any help that you have to offer. Please e-mail
any replys.
