[pardon the off-topic post, but you guys know it all!]
I've got a DEC PW433 with a Adaptec 2940UW SCSI card running SuSE-AXP 6.3.
I've currently got an old 2Gb SCSI drive hooked up to it and I want to buy a
new one. My question is about the multitide of SCSI types out there (Ultra
Wide, Ultra2, Ultra2 Wide, etc...).
I know any drive that could possibly work must have a 68-pin connector (like
my current drive). If I see two similar drives: one Ultra Wide and one
Ultra2 Wide (both have 68-pin connectors) can I use either one? I may see no
performace boost if I get the Ultra2 Wide (since my card is only Ultra
Wide), but will I see *lower* performance?
In other words, should I try to match my UW SCSI card with an UW SCSI drive?
TIA
