Adaptec SCSI 2940 PCI

 

The AHA-2940 host adapter brings the highest performance SCSI I/O technology to the fast PCI local-bus. Based on Adaptec-designed RISC technology, the AHA-2940 maximizes system I/O performance and utilizes the PCI local-bus to transfer data up to 133 MB/second. This series of high-performance, intelligent host adapters supports advanced SCSI features and bus master direct memory access (DMA) data transfers. Combined with the high performance of SCSI and the fastest system bus available, the AHA-2940 delivers maximum I/O throughput for demanding desktop and network server applications. The AHA-2940 PCI host adapter brings compatibility, reliability and ease-of-use to the desktop or server PC. The AHA-2940 is compatible with all major operating systems, SCSI-1 and Fast SCSI-2 peripherals, as well as industry-standard application software. Adaptec's extensive testing program ensures compatibility between the PCI system and the SCSI host adapter. The AHA-2940 features the BIOS-resident SCSISelect configuration utility which eliminates the need to handle jumpers or terminators while installing the board or adding peripherals. All configuration and terminator settings are controlled via the keyboard. This means that once the host adapter is installed, the PC chassis need never be opened again.
