I have an SH204 hard drive that has died a sad death.  Unfortunately, the
problem has been diagnosed to be the Adaptek controller card.  Local
repair facilities have said that the card cannot be repaired but must
be replaced.  After doing some research, I have several questions:

1)  Does anyone have a suggestion of a repair facility that could repair
    an SH204 Adaptek card for a reasonable fee?

2)  Are there any suggestions on the best place to buy one of the
    following Adaptek cards:  4000A, 4010, 4070 or 4070A?

3)  Are there other brands of cards which will work with little or no
    modification?

Advice on this matter is needed and appreciated.  If you feel a response
would be useful to others on the net, then post.  Otherwise, please respond
via mail.
