suggestions for SCSI controller

April 22nd, 2013, 5:17

Dear Gurus

I'm looking into buying 1 or 2 SCSI controller cards for building up a SCSI data recovery station.

I would appreciate if I had your suggestions/experience in which card type/model/brand to look for.

I know that there are a lot of scsi controllers out there, but I would like your suggestions for getting 1 or 2 cards that could cover the most of the SCSI drive cases.

Thank you
KC

Thanks for your responses.

Any particular model that could cover as much cases (backwards compatibility) as possible?

Thank you

As everyone else I would also suggest Adaptec. Check eBay there are tons of options, I dont think any model in particular would matter; as far as I understand you want to use them to make images and recover scsi raids right?
