I currently have a EIDE 1.2 gig caviar drive on this machine, and I
would like to replace it with a 2 gig 7200RPM, 512k of cache Connor
SCSI 2 drive.

I run FreeBSD, Linux and DOS.  I'm interested in a Fast, SCSI PCI
host adapter - but I don't want to spend lots of money.  What options
do I have besides the Adaptec 2940 for the above operating systems
that is fast (or maybe, faster)?
