        By any chance, did anyone out there start making a PaloMax
HD interface and not finish, or upgrade to something else?  The reason
I ask is because I recently blew my OMTI 5527 controller while wiring
up a new power supply for my Hard Disk.
        So I need to find a replacement OMTI 5527 or 8127.  The 5527
isn't made anymore, and I can't find anyone that sells the 8127.
Anyone have one of these that they aren't using?
        On a similar vane, what other controllers have people managed
to get working with the PaloMax interface?  What kind of performance
did you get?  Any problems?
