Re: scsi advice

Only get the U2W if you are for sure going to add harddriveS.  The only way you'll be
taking advantage of the 80mb/sec is if you have multiple fast devices conected to
it.... otherwise its just wasted bandwidth, and at a substantial cost.  All you really
need is a scsiII card.  Like the adaptec 2940AU or something.
