The card I have is clearly labeled "AHA-2940UW Dual / NE adaptec".  The
sticker over the AIC 7895P chip bears the following text "AHA-2940UW
DUAL / DELL".

When in a machine running 3.0-RELEASE it probes with the following:

ahc0: <Adaptec aic7895 Ultra SCSI adapter> rev 0x03 int a irq 5 on
pci0.13.0
ahc0: aic7895 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/255 SCBs
ahc1: <Adaptec aic7895 Ultra SCSI adapter> rev 0x03 int b irq 11 on 
pci0.13.1
ahc1: aic7895 Single Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 16/255 SCBs

I think it just might be an Adaptec that you don't know about.
