No SCSI Ultra 160 with Adaptec Controller

Hi All,

While trying to determine why my SCSI Ultra 160 drives don't work on my Dell PowerApp.Web 100 I noticed this section of code:

/*
* This is needed to work around a sequencer bug for now. Regardless
* of the controller in use, if we have a Quantum drive, we need to
* limit the speed to 80MByte/sec. As soon as I get a fixed version
* of the sequencer, this code will get yanked.
*/
if(!strncmp(buffer + 8, "QUANTUM", 7) &&
p->transinfo[tindex].goal_options )

Since this machine has Quantum drives I guess this is my problem. Does anyone know if this code is still actually neccessary? It seems it's been there a while. It's dissapointing to not get full performance out of the hardware you have.

Thanks,
Tom
