   I saw your followup that you found my "configuration" file regarding the
above. I should point out that the configuration will be changing soon when
we move to RAID 5 for all of the disk space. The new config will be a Mylex
DAC960SXI hanging off of a two channel AHA-3940AUW (which is aic-7895 based).
The Mylex SCSI-SCSI RAID controller has six SCSI busses - two will be
configured as host busses with the other four going to the disk drives.
