No, sorry to say that I am not. I had fits with the 2940UW and am now
using the Asus PCI-SC875. I have also used the the BusLogic BT-958.
Others amy work also but the BT-958 seems to be the most reliable. The
2940UW is the fastest but liitle good that does when it is so (for me)
unreliable. I was lucky, I managed to trade my 2940UW's for PCI-SC875's.
The last test I did was to run 128 passes of Bonnie on a 2GB file size and
not a peep did I hear, everything was peachy keen (I guess you can infer
that I am *very* patient to have endured such a long bonnie test).
