Your 290U2W uses the 896 chipset? 895 -- the 896 is mostly just two 895's on the same silicon. > da0 at sym1 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 > da0: <SEAGATE ST318203LW 0002> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device > da0: 40.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled > da0: 17366MB (35566480 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2213C) You've checked termination, cables, etc..? I wonder if there is something in your card's option ROM that isn't getting set on the Alpha vs. i386.

But, maybe a different card would work better? -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
