- Can anyone with a Sun S-bus Fast SCSI-2/Buffered Ethernet Card comment
- on it? We would be using with with SCSI-1 devices (HP 97548 793M
- disks), I've read about the problems with SCSI-2 devices, but we don't
- have any yet. Is the Ethernet performance noticably better than the
- SBus Ethernet controller? Does it create an le device or some other
- name?
-
- Our S-bus SCSI Host Adapter died and the repair is basically to buy a
- new one. Buying an FSBE/S is only a couple of hundred dollars more.
-
- Thanks!
