I'm interested in getting a SCSI interface for my A1000, but don't have
enough information to choose from the ones available (e.g., Supra, MAST,
Microbotics, C-Ltd, and Comspec).  The features most important to me are:

    - performance (hard drive)
    - does the provided software driver support a streaming tape drive
    - reliability
    - price

Also, is the possibility of adding an expansion chassis (Pheonix) so that
A2000 cards can be used worth pursuing?  From what I've been able to gather,
using SCSI cards with this setup is flaky at best.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
