I have the "new" C Ltd. KRONOS-2000 hard drive controller, and I think it's
one heck of a piece of hardware.  I did have some trouble upgrading from my
old C Ltd. controller, but after calling their support department and pulling
together parts of the documentation from about five different sections into
the right order, I got it up OK.  It autoboots from FFS and it's FAST.

By the way, does anyone have benchmark stats comparing the C Ltd. "non-DMA"
controllers to other companies' DMA ones?

I didn't really have a choice for controller brand, because I bought my 2000
in a package deal.  I'm sorry to hear that people had such bad experiences
with C Ltd., and even sorrier to see them go out of business.  I hope the
KRONOS series is not the cause of their demise, because it seems to be pretty
solid.
