I have had a BusLogic 956C (Fast/Wide SCSI II) card for a couple of months now, 
and 2 HAWK 1GB F/W drives. I have been a little bit disappointed by the 
performance of that combo under Win'95.

I posted a few questions, and the result is that:
   - Win'95 is imply not a good SCSI plaform
   - The BusLogic adapter is not a great performer....


  I agree with the first one, and i will probably try to install Linux and NT 
for fun and see what kind of performance i get. The second argument however 
surprised me... Can anybody confirm this "allegation" ? Should i send the 
BusLogic back and get another Fast/Wide adapter ?



Thanks,
Laurent.
