A word of caution, though.  The adaptec Open Firmware (OF) cards should be
avoided at all costs.  Adaptec provided the drivers, not Sun, and support
for them has been discontinued (and is nonexistent in 64-bit Solaris).

The Symbios cards are rock solid, they use the same chipsets and drivers
as the onboard SCSI in the Ultra 30/60/450/etc.  Chances are that support
will not disappear for a very very long time.
