But it=E2=80=99s slow on my AMD Athlon X2 FreeBSD machine Maybe one would have to tweak assembler optimizations in the port build? = Or I=E2=80=99ll get me a better CPU+MB+memory. Before I continue with getting a Windows XP image to run in VirtualBox = (yes, I would have to run some old Win32 program that accesses the SCSI = bus (program is called esiWin and requires some older DLLs - = WNASPI32.dll/Adaptec, which don=E2=80=99t seem to be available under Windows 10 and I don=E2=80=99t have the hardware available anyway with a = Windows 10 system). So in said above FreeBSD system (which I upgraded to 12.1before = yesterday) there is a 2520 Symbios (sym(4) card) which can access the = SCSI devices, an SCSI-CDROM and an ESI-4000 sampler (equipped with an = SCSI2CD San-Disk unit). That=E2=80=99s the scene behind it. The idea is to access the SCSI controller/Bus from within VirtualBox. Would that work at all? =E2=80=94 Christoph
