   why not run both and get 3 channels?

I'm sorry I don't have the original article that spawned this thread
anymore.  If the original intent was to find another good EISA SCSI
card, why not consider a BusLogic BT747?  I guarantee it will perform
as well if not better.  I've been running one in my NetBSD EISA
machine for over a year and a half.
