Talk to your controller vendor, not to your UNIX vendor.  As of 3/18/89,
at least Columbia Data Products, Inc (PO Box 2584,
Alamonte Springs, FL 32714; support (407) 869-6700; BBS (407) 862-4724) had
drivers for Western Digital's 7000-FASST SCSI controller.  Microport,
Interactive, Bell Tech, and XENIX drivers were all available for shipment.

As an aside, the FASST and FASST2 are excellent controllers.  Not too
expensive, live up to their names.
