Not a bad card at all. I've been using the Sonnet one for ages.

Just a note, check the firmware revision on the card. (I used to show 
up in Apple System Profiler) Sonnet seems to have gotten behind on 
firmware updates. You can get the latest here 
<http://www.acard.com/eng/> The model is AHARD 66 (AEC6260M). It is the 
identical card to the Sonnet Tempo 66. If the firmware is anything less 
than 1.12, update. If it is 1.12 or higher, you are alright. The 
earlier firmware versions sometimes slip through and have issues. It is 
a simple automatic process. Just plug the card in, don't connect the 
drives yet, and run the updater from your SCSI original disk. Takes 
about 1 minute to do.
