Cool. I recognized it enough to know it was something I could use (for the
Netapp FC tray), and the seller didn't recognize it enough. I didn't
haggle with him or anything. :) 

I think I have room in the U60 here for it... gonna have the SunPCi, this,
possibly an Intraserver LVD card (or IBM/Mylex Extremeraid if there's
Solaris 9 support for it... doubt it... haven't looked yet) and two m3
frame buffers. Mmm, space heater :)
