Subject: SCSI recommendations?
Date: Thu, 2 May 1996 12:05:19 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19960502160519.iRKTAdgmdMOD5hRI3Ko13ucOXlkbhMIM1Gm2W8CPf1U@z> (raw)
I've successfully installed Plan 9 on a 486 ISA motherboard with
AHA 1542 CF SCSI controller. At some point in the future I want
to acquire a new system with a 586 PCI motherboard. My hardware
supplier lists the following PCI-SCSI controllers:
- Adaptec 2940 (also "W" and "UW")
- Adaptec 2920 / TMC 3260
- Buslogic FLASHPOINT LT
- Buslogic(?) KT 930 SGT
- Buslogic(?) KT 950 SGTX
As I understand, the Adaptec 2940 is not (yet?) supported. The
FAQ mentions that "Buslogic Controllers are the most trouble-free",
does this include the FLASHPOINT LT? As it costs only half as much
as the Adaptec I fear it is a stripped down design (LT == light?)
that leaves much to the driver software and the general statement
that Plan 9 "works with ALL Buslogic Controllers" might not be
applicable.
Any recommendations? I'm not limited to the above list, so feel
free to add your proposal!
