Hi,
i own an AlphaPC 164LX. Actually i boot from IDE, because the SRM didn't
recognise my Seagate connected to an 895 DigitalStorm.
So, I'm searching for an SCSI controller which is bootable. I found
following Controllers with Google:
Symbios Logic 8100S ( 53C810 Chipset) (or other 53C810 w/o ending letters
like A or AE) (810A is definitly
not working??)
Taekram 390F ( 53C875 Chipset) (only revision 2.2, 3.0 is not known
to work)
(some chipsets miss?)
Now my question. I'm able to get a MAX 875 Controller (symbios 875
chipset). Someone knows if other 875 controllers are bootable from my
alpha (AlphaPC 146LX) except the 390f (Maybe someone hase the MAX 875? ;)?
And what are the differences between the 2.2 and 3.0 revision? And how
affect these limit to 2.2 other 875 controllers? Is that a chipset
revision?
Greetings, Oliver
