    Hi
    
    I'd like to re-visit this topic.  I need to support several TL800 ATLs
    on AlphaServer 2100/4100 systems.  Given the high throughput of the
    TZ89 tape drives, Tape Engineering suggests that only two of these
    drives be placed on a KZPSA.  Thus, I quickly fill up the available PCI
    slots, and find I need more slots . . .
    
    . . . or a multi-channel SCSI adapter.  Not a RAID adapter, as these
    tape drives are not supported on RAID controllers (nor would it make
    sense to).
    
    Are any multi-channel SCSI adapters available for the AS2100/AS4100
    systems?
    
    Thanks!
