The mobo's SCSI bus is 8 bits, 5 MB/sec. The UW-SCSI version of the Beige is much, much faster, of course, and that's the version I am currently using ... an Apple/ATTO single channel UW SCSI card, with a 16-bit external connection. Apple/ATTO card specs ... Delivers Ultra/WIDE SCSI Performance * Single channel for throughput up to 40 MB/sec. * Supports up to 15 devices * Supports legacy (SCSI-3, SCSI-2 and SCSI-1) SCSI devices * Single-ended devices (PSC) * Internal HD-68 and External connectors Note that some Apple/ATTO cards don't have a functional external connector ... it's just a "dummy" connector. Occasionally available for about $39.95 from OWC. Although the firmware is Apple's "crippled" version, it is possible to FLASH it back to ATTO, and thereafter to FLASH it to ATTO's latest firmware. This is what I have elected to do. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
