Please explain to me why Adaptec is an upgrade.  The testimony given
from Linux and FreeBSD users state they've had significantly better 
performance from their NCR53C810 than any 7870-based card, even on a bad day!
Not to mention that the 2940 card carries a fairly heavy pricetag...

If there is some new wonderful Adaptec PCI SCSI card, I'd like to hear
about it.
