Is anyone have success with an Adaptec 2906 scsi? I was an (unfortunate) early adopter of OS X and one of the things not working with the early versions of 10.0 was the drivers for the 2906. The problem was sporadic. I didn't know this for months and thought the problem lie in my external CD writer. I gave up and unplugged it but would like to hook it up now. I'm running 10.2.5 and have version 1.1 of the adapted driver. Anybody with any luck?
Got a tip for us?

Re: Adaptec 2906 scsi - Is yours working?
Isn't that the "fast" SCSI-1 10 MB/s card? If yes, then I have it working on OS X 10.2.4 Server. A DLT backup unit is attached to it, and is running Retrospect flawlessly. But I do know of some problems with this card and external SCSI CD burners.
The funny thing is that it 'sometimes" works.
So answer to your question:
Yes, it works with my hardware, but it doesn't work very well with some CD burners.
