I have no experience with Digital Processing Technology but I am
currently using an Advansys  ABP-930, it replaced my 2940 and is
considerably faster.  It cost around 1/2 the price and has excellent
tech support.  It ships with drivers for win3.1, win95, win NT, SCO
Unix, Interactive Unix, netware, and you can dl Linux  drivers from
there website.

It has a 50Mhz RISC processor and does an excellent job of  command
queing and scatter/gather.  I'd very much recommend you check out
there web page BEFORE you purchase anything else.  www.advansys.com
