None at all. I am running a Quadra 700/33MHz with a Quantum Empire 1080
(had it running with an IBM DORS 32160U 2GB drive just fine). What more - I
can at last use my Fujitsu MO. I still see an occasional crash with it when
mounting media with significant interrupt activity (Ethernet, serial), but
apart from that - no problems.

The 'esp' driver definitely looks more stable to me than its 53c80 brethren.
