If i could have afforded a nice card, I prefer buslogic. Failing that (my
wallet failed the test), The fireport has a 50pin narrow out the back,
and the Tekram 390F which has a 68pib connector external(which I opted
for)
Both are NCR53C875 based cards, which are well supported in the kernel,
and quite fast to boot.
