Hey all, I purchased a Tekram DC-390U2W scsi controller to use with a
FreeBSD server of mine. It uses the NCR 53c141 (and 53c895?) chipset(s). I
see that ncr.c supports the NCR 53c8xx family of chipsets..
which the controller is seen as having a 53c895, which only supports
40Mb/sec operation(?)

<paste/ncr.c>
 {NCR_895_ID, 0x00,     "ncr 53c895 fast40 wide scsi",          7, 31, 7,
 FE_WIDE|FE_ULTRA2|FE_QUAD|FE_CACHE_SET|FE_DFS|FE_LDSTR|FE_PFEN|FE_RAM}
</paste>

I am assuming that it only supports 40Mb/sec operation.. could someone
prove me wrong? I just want to get 80Mb/sec operation (would I need to have
support for the 53c141 driver? are there any out there, is it in the
works?). Tekram has FreeBSD drivers on their site but they say it is
supported in 3.0, I can't find anything newer. They are working on a new
one.. They already have support for the DC-390U2W on various Linux's of
course :(

Could anyone *please* enlighten me? I would be grateful.

Please reply to my email address, as I am not subsribed to these lists.

Thanks a lot,

Kevin
