Hi all,
I am going to get a new HD controller for my Linux box.
I am thinking about the AHA 2940 SCSI controller or get a
PCI Promise EIDE controller with cache memory (..maybe 2Mbytes)
but I am not sure at all if I must go into the SCSI world.
I know SCSI allows high data throughput and it controls more devices
but PLEASE:
- Do you know if the 2940 works great under Linux?. Do I really get
big advantages using this controller?
- What's about the Promise PCI controller?. Any experience?
Any clue? ;-)
Thanks in advance,
Felix
