Yes.

I've seen ads mentioning ISA and EISA controllers from Legacy, Altec, Zenon
and Comtrade. These are system vendors who may or may not sell components
seperately. They'll probably mention what manufacturers were used. Hard
Drives Intl. is probably a good bet for a source. I think Edge uses a caching
Mylex controller which is SCSI-2.

My advice. Go spend $2.95 and a couple of hours with Computer Shopper
and you'll find what you need.
