- Take care about it. The M-TEC 28 is overclocked yet (the 030
- is a 20MHz version), so it work out of limits by default.
-
- I have now a M-TEC 42MHz and I suspect it's overclocked too,
- but it has several heat sinks glued on top of the chip, so I
- can't see the original speed...I think I prefer not to know
- it, so I don't worry too much... ;-)

- Somebody here tested the M-TEC SCSI controller? It's the
- best I have ever seen! And I have seen several controllers
- :-)
