Well. If this drive (and perhaps a CDROM) is all you connect to the SCSI
bus, you can get along with UltraWide (40 MB/s) or even FastWide (20
MB/s). Only quite new drives are able to deliver sustained data
transferes beyond 40 MB/s. A faster SCSI bus would only help if you
connect several disks and use them simultaneously, e.g. in a RAID setup.
So a good old Sym53C875 or QLA1040 UltraWide SCSI adapter should do the
job.=20
