I'm looking to pick up a new SCSI card. I've got a NCR53c825-based card
(not NCR53c825a), capable of Fast-Wide SCSI II, but I'm using narrow SCSI
right now - two 4GB disks are on that card. I've also got an old Adaptec
1542 in there, with a scanner and an external SyQuest cartridge drive on it.
I'm looking to pick up a new SCSI card with potential for future expansion.
I'd move the disks to the new card and the external stuff to the 825, and
dump the 1542 to an old 486.
I'm happy with the NCR-based stuff, and I'd get a Symbios 53C875 in a
heartbeat, but from what I understand the sym53c8xx driver won't work
with a 53c825 (but would if I had a 53c825a). Is this correct? Can I use
both drivers at once? How bad would the performance hit be if I ran both
with the ncr53c8xx driver? Would that work?
Thanks for any advice...
Sincerely,
