I use this card as a floppy/disk controller in a PC/AT that's used solely for imaging.
The controller is connected to two Seagate ST-2502N (442MB) hard drives running MS-DOS
6.22. Works like a champ. Cables are readily available on eBay but since they're
regular 50-pin IDC connectors, you can DIY if needed -- connectors are readily available.

Has anyone using one of these cards made use of the SCSI function? It
has a Centronics 50 connector, which isn't terribly useful unless
you've got the right cable, but if you're building an all-in-one
imaging machine, it might be handy to have SCSI capability as well.
It seems the driver hasn't been in Linux for quite a few versions.
Not sure about the BSDs.
