Paul,
You want the AA, not the AB for the model 90.

There was only one SCSI option made that I know of. The variation of
the part number may be the one that included the upgrade firmware for
the old 3100-90 machines.
The original 3100-90 firmware only knew about the on board SCSI. At
that time the only option that would show up in that slot was the
single DSSI card for the 4000-100s. THese machines had firmware at
level 1.3 or earlier.
Version 2.4 and later of the firmware supports the SCSI option card for
3100-90,85,95,96 etc. and
a single or dual DSSI card for 4000-100,105,106.
If you have V1.3 firmware and can update to V2.6 the latest then you
should be able to use the SCSI card option to the best of my knowledge.

The -AA is for the older BA42 box. The -AB is for the newer
"mini-tower" box.
