Dear All,
Thank you for all nice answer.
Now, I have many reference to get the ne SCSI HardDisk.
And I will buy the Adaptec 2940 ultra wide scsi and use Slackware 3.4
(kernel 2.0.30). Is this SCSI adapter card compatible with this kernel
versions ?
I'm sorry, because i have never used SCSI Harddisk with Linux or I am
stupid with SCSI device.
Thank you for your kind attention.
