The ATTO dual channel card.

On the compatibility documents, there are newer, faster cards that are approved for the G4, but for the 9600, only the ATTO EPCI-DC is approved. Of course, if you buy a new G4, you'll be able to do fine with FireWire or ATA, and won't need SCSI. There's less potential for -6042 errors with Firewire, because the disk traffic is taken off the PCI bus. Lee Blaske
