Tried to obtain a Newer card but the 8100 version seems unavailable, or just
very back-ordered. Ended up trying the Crescendo G3 card. It wasn't
compatible with the Atto SEIV SCSI card (it managed to blow the SCSI fuse).
It also had problems with an 8100-based Dyaxis audio hard disk editor (SCSI
driver again). It worked fine on a regular 8100, with the normal Mac SCSI.
