    I have two adaptec scsi card one AHA 2940UW (with AIC-7880 chipset), the other is a PCI64 card (compatible with normal PCI) with a AIC-7892B chipset and a AIC-3860Q.
    If anyone want one, it's free.

    I live in France, if you pay the price for the shipping it's yours. The first one should work as it's the same chip than marshall's card, I'm not sure about the other one.
    I was going to dump them but when I saw this post ... If it can help someone ....

    I would be good to dump them first (with care!) because I don't have the full knowledge and equipment to do so currently. How much would shipping be?

    Here's a shot of the insides for anyone who's curious.

    Altera Flex FPGA on the left for N64 comms, QLogic SCSI interface on the right. Up under the SIMM memory is an Analog Devices chip, probably a combo CPU/SIMM managemant. The BIOS chip to the right is a 64Kbit Winbond EEPROM.

    Got an Adaptec 1460A SlimSCSI PC card adapter for my laptop. Sure enough, it works great with PsyQ! Now I can bring my laptop along and show off demos :D:D:D
