I've been thinking about going SCSI myself, and several people have
recommended Tekram as a lot of bang for the buck. I'm not sure about
Linux support though, But I think they use the same chipset as
Adaptec. IANACB (I am not a chip builder :)

Subject: [SLUG] Recommendations for a SCSI-2 card?

Hi folks -- a SCSI newbie here, as you'll soon see.

I'm building servers that have Ultra160 hard drives and an Ultra160
backup drive, and I ignorantly included a SCSI-2 DVD/CD-ROM drive on
the same chain. (Duhhhh! Why won't my hard drives go any faster?
Duhhhh!)

So to prevent the chain from downgrading to the speed of that drive,
I'm planning to add a simple PCI SCSI-2 card to handle the DVD/CD
drive.

Any recommendations (Tekram? Adaptec? Other brand? What model?) would
be very welcome.

Ben
