The HAYES JT9600 fax/modem card is NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SCSI.
Install the card and the system won't boot.

External modems are better than internal anyway.  They don't take
a slot, don't require you to power the system off when they hang,
and I can watch the lights to see what is happening.  We use an
Everex class II external with UNIFAX software.

Bill.
