True but pragmatically, I have no machine with 64 bit PCI and I have
nine drives in a stripe and 3 SCSI channels (3 drives to a channel)
has been a useful confuguration excepting that it wastes two PCI slots,
so I would like to try the AAA-133, is it supportred?

I trust that the memory size of the machine is much less than 256 MB,
if so, this is quite nice. How many and what kind of disks?
