Yes, the AHA154x[AB] can handle both Initiator and Taget Mode.

In Target Mode the Commands 'TEST UNIT READY, REQUEST SENSE, INQUIRY,
SEND, RECEIVE' are supported. The Host Adapter then acts just like
any other SCSI device. You can select 8 LUN's at the Target Host Adpter
(maybe 8 processes receiving and sending at will ;-).

I havn't seen any application with this feature yet. Anybody else ?
