If you happen do own a NCR 53c825 PCI SCSI host adapter
and a WIDE disk drive, you're invited to test drive that 
combination at max. speed with our new PCI SCSI driver :).

You ought to use any *BSD (FreeBSD >= 1.1, NetBSD-current,
386bsd-0.1+patches), that is currently supported by the 
NCR 53c810 driver.

Please send you application ;) to:

	<wolf@dentaro.GUN.de> Wolfgang Stanglmeier
and
	<se@ZPR.Uni-Koeln.DE> Stefan Esser

We need one or two such systems to verify that the driver
does the right thing (ie. negotiate WIDE transfers) and 
that there are no unexpected differences between the 53c810 
and the 53c825.

PS: Sorry, forgot to crosspost my article to 
    "comp.os.386bsd.development" to the other 
    apropriate groups, so here's another copy.
