What machines are you considering this for?  I've been using the ZuluSCSI,
both wide and narrow, with Sun SparcStation 5 through Sun Ultra 1.  They
work great.  The only issue I've run into is Solaris installer being picky
about disk geometry.  I solved it by looking at an old disk, writting the
C-H-S numbers down, and setting them in the ZuluSCSI config.  I can send
the numbers I'm using later if you'd like.
