So...] I have additional questions perhaps you could help me with. 1. Does Bell-Tech Unix have support for this board yet? I haven't bought it yet, but Bell-Tech looks like the best performer in the i/o through-put realm. 2. Any recommendations on 300 and 600 meg drives that would work well with this card? 3. How does it do with multiple drives? 4. Where can I buy one? Thanks. Richard Foulk richard@uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu University of Hawaii 1993 East-West Rd. Honolulu, HI 96822 (808) 735-5013
