Its a 9500 w/ a Newer Tech G3 (233) running sys 8.1
Thanks for your interest Charles, also any thoughs about this....
I was thinking about the Firemax 2 card that will do firewire & SCSI
acceleration, combining that with a single drive (4 maybe 8 gig). I'm
trying to postpone an expensive heavy-duty array till I get something like
an MCXpress. Unfortunately I was told by a sales person at Promax that
there are unresolved issues re. the built-in SCSI acceleration on the
Firemax 2 and he advised against using it that way. Any comments?
