I'm looking on replacing my EIDE disk IO subsystem which currently runs
Linux, FreeBSD and DOS with a Connor 7200RPM 8 ms 2 gig drive with 512k
of cache SCSI drive -- 

I can't decide on which controller to use.  Is the 2940 my only option?
I have access to an older 2940 (original one) however, I would like to
know if there is a PCI SCSI host adapter for less money that runs faster
than the 2940 under FreeBSD, Linux and DOS.

Comments?
