Yep, at U80 or so...
I think the 2940UW is gonna be 40Mb, U2 need for 80?

The funny thing is that the 215e is 80MB/s, but the HP documentation say it should go on a Ultra160 card. I have a Compaq (pre-HP era) PCI SCSI card which can go with the tape drive and that is Wide ULTRA SCSI 3, can't see why it wouldn't work with the 215e. And I should also have the SCSI cable for it...



 

Aren't you supposed to be on holiday? ::)

No, I am in Italy, fixing Volvos....  ;D

I have bought an Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 card, so that should do the job.

MJ - is it a half helight device (thinking of removing from enclosure and fitting internally)?
