Anyone try them >out with FreeBSD? Do we have any RAID support at all? I should have a PCI machine again in a few weeks. Once I do, if someone wants to send me a 398x card, I'll do the driver support for it. It should be a natural extension from the aic7870 support (there are just three of those chips on the board from what I understand), but there will need to be some tweeking to get RAID support up. > >>>>>> >Article 19843 of comp.periphs.scsi: >From: Nils-Eivind.Naas@isaf.no (Nils-Eivind Naas) >Newsgroups: comp.periphs.scsi >Subject: Re: Adaptec AHA-3940, AHA-3940W >Date: 8 May 1995 11:44:58 GMT >Organization: Institute Group for Social Research, Oslo >Lines: 21 > >In <3ohotl$7mk@infolink1.infolink.net>, scanner@infolink.net (Chan Wai Keung) >writes: >>hello, >> >> Does anybody tell me the details in the above two model from Adaptec? >> > >They are described in detail in Adaptec's 1/23/95 press release, >available on http://www.adaptec.com. > >Briefly, they are 3-channel SCSI PCI host adapters, Fast ($499) and >Fast-Wide respectively, using a new high-speed RISC processor, >1 per channel. > >There is also a 3985 3-channel RAID[015] host adapter ($ 799). >-- >Nils-Eivind Naas Mail: nils-eivind.naas@isaf.no >Manager, Computer Services >Institute Group for Social Research Tel.: +47 22 55 45 10 >Munthesgt. 31 Fax: +47 22 43 13 85 >0260 Oslo, Norway ><<<<< > >-- >Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao >taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org > -- Justin T.
