Hello, everybody.
Would anyone tell me if an Adaptec 2940 UW SCSI card is supported by a beige desktop PowerPC G3 in order to use 68 pin drives that could be faster? If not, which adaptor could serve for that purpose?
Thank you in advance.

I have an Adaptec 2940 in a 9600 which was an earlier machine than the beige G3, and it works just fine. So I would guess you would be fine using one in the G3, though you might have to find and install a driver.

Hello, mac2geezer.
Thank you very much for your answer. I effectively suppose that getting the 2940 UW drivers for Mac could be a bit difficult, but anyway, we're warriors, aren't we?
All the best.

You might try this site for drivers; as I recall there are drivers for both the 2940 and 3940 there.
