I was thinking of adding another PCI scsi controller to speed it up a bit and allow us to add more drives.... Since I already have a controller I can boot from, would this matter with the SC-200 that I cant boot from it? ? Or should I pay a little extra for the Ultra version (875)? We dont have any ultra drives just yet... Would it matter for now in terms of performance? Also, how are the drivers for the NCR based SCSI controllers ? Are they as stable as the Adaptec ones ? Thanks, ---Mike
