No probelems whatsoever. I run Linux exclusively on my box. My brother has a Mylex/Buslogic BT-958 in his box, with several SCSI devices and runs WIN95 and Linux with no problems. I would try either one as they are both great SCSI controllers. See http://www.adaptec.com/products/index= .html> &=20 http://www.mylex.co= m/prodinfo/products2.html#scsihost> for more info.
