You can get drivers for the u2w if you want to recompile from thier ftp site. --- Jeff West [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am currently using this card with an IBM DRVS 10,000 RPM Ultra2 LVD SCSI Drive - works great, but the current drivers do not support the 80 MB / sec only 40 MB /sec - still good enough for my purposes.

To be precise, the driver is ncr53c8xx.
Note however that there are two drivers for this kind of cards: the
aforementioned ncr53c8xx and sym53c8xx, which supports more features of
*recent* controllers.
From /us/sr/li/Do/Configure.help:
This driver supports all the features of recent 53C8XX chips (used
in PCI SCSI controllers), notably the hardware phase mismatch
feature of the SYM53C896.
Older versions of the 53C8XX chips are not supported by this
driver. If your system uses either a 810 rev. 16, a 815, or a 825
rev. 16 PCI SCSI processor, you must use the generic NCR53C8XX
driver ("NCR53C8XX SCSI support" above) or configure both the
NCR53C8XX and this SYM53C8XX drivers either as module or linked to
the kernel image.
Hope this helps,
