So this hardware is still supported today. I suspect it may still be on the HCL afterwards, too.

In addition, if you went back to NT - you would also know you are on
your own being that MS stopped support about a year ago.

You're overlooking a key point: In eight years of running Windows NT, I never _needed_ any support. I never once put in a call to Microsoft technical support.

Support comes in many fashons - my example require you to think about Service Packs, Hot fixes etc. NOT you typical call to some munkie reading a script.



It's really very simple. Get 2 SCSI drives that are alike, that will
most likely halt your issies.

SCSI drives are $300 each, and drives compatible with this controller and connectors are scarce. The last time I checked, about a year or two ago, there was only one drive left on the market that was compatible. All the others required different connectors.

Read what happens when you mix 2 unlike SCSI drives. Read how one faster one HAS to pace itself with the slowest. Hell, just read about SCSI and you'll find this out.


Now - Stop tossing legacy hardware at a new OS.
