- >I want to add SCSI controller to my A4000 to obtain more than 3

- >(Fastlane Z3? DKB4091? Any other?) ?
-
- Neither the Fastlane or DKB4091 are in production any longer. If you can
- find one, the Fastlane is certainly capable of very fast transfers.
-
- You might be better off with a WarpEngine or CyberStorm. I've heard that
- the '040 WarpEngines are no longer in production also so your options may
- be very limited.
-
- On a related note, as your VLAB is a Zorro 2 card can it even take
- advantage of the transfer speeds of the Z3 SCSI2 cards?
