Most likely unsupported.  If they are supported at all, then only at
QIC-80 level which is probably not what you want.

The ft driver is orphaned.

Brian Sommers (i believe) offered his Archive Viper 150 recently, for
fairly low costs (£ 50 if i'm not mistaken).  If you want a good
advise, pick this one...
