Howard Lew:
 |Can anyone give me so info about NCR based SCSI controllers?  Is it just 
 |the chip?   Which ones work with FreeBSD?  And where can I get one?
 |
 |What's the price difference compared to an Adaptec 2940UW?

Some of your answers can be found by surfing:

     http://www.freebsd.org/search.html

key in "ncr" in the top blank and hit submit, and you'll get links to
several lists of varying levels of detail. 

Personally I can vouch for the NCR810 support.  NCR SC-200 SCSI controller
was by far the best buy for the money (~$70) when I bought it, and I've
never been dissatisfied.  It (like the other 810s I believe) doesn't have a
BIOS on the card, but if you have a SCSI BIOS on your motherboard, you can
still boot off of it.
