Where can this adapter be picked >up for around $80? Various places in the shopper sell the NCR53C810 based card for $65-$90, but almost none list it as such. Most just list 'PCI SCSI2 controller'; if you see such a listing in that price range, it is almost certainly the NCR. I got mine from an ad in the shopper from a place called IDER for $70; I think for $129 they offer the NCR53C825 -- fast wide SCSI2. Farewell- Aaron
