Just my 2 cents:

I have tried different SCSI boards over the years and my
1540C (no floppy capability) has never been a problem.  
I am very impressed with how easy it is to set up - 
especially with Adaptec's EZ-SCSI software.

I selected the Adaptec 1540C after hearing comments about other
boards from friends and people on the notes files...Adaptec 
seemed to cause less problems and less complaints.

I have connected a variety of peripherials (hard drives, CD, tape,
scanners, etc.) to my 1540C with no problems.
