OK, here are my questions:

Is the Tandy SCSI host adaptor equivalent to the Adaptec AHA-1540,
the AHA-1540A, or the AHA-1542A. Tandy could not tell me this.

What does scatter-gather mean for performance (the 1540 vs the 1540A)?


PS, I would have mailed this question, if only adaptex was really
registered to the uucp domain.
