If you want lowest possible price and broadest driver support, *and* you don't plan to use SCSI for your HD, you can't beat NCR/Symbios/LSI Logic chipped HBA's. SYM8751SP cards are usually available on eBay in the $25-$40 range, currently bidding at $31. New LSI cards with features comparable to the various Adaptec models generally cost 1/3 to 50% less. -- A gift opens the way for the giver, and ushers him into the presence of the great.
