Looking for a good SCSI supported Motherboard

[robbyp]

I need a motherboard that has a built-in SCSI controller (Ultra 160) if one exists. If you know of anything I'd appreciate it. Right now, undecided on a processor, so either AMD or Pentium will do. Thank you.

Unless you're looking at xeon/server class boards you're hard-pressed for much of a selection. ATA and Serial ATA has pretty much taken over what SCSI had before, expecially with ATA RAID being available. Can I ask why you're looking for SCSI onboard?

If you're looking for what SCSI brings, SATA and ATA RAID will do as good a job for cheaper. If you have a SCSI drive and you want to use it with a new system, I'd suggest an add-on PCI card - its cheaper and it gives you more flexibility with your mobo purchase.

I am purchasing a new tape drive...http://www.quantum.com/AM/products/dlt/vs160/default.htm

I more than likely will get the PCI add on since it's not going to be a server class computer to run it. Any more info is appreciated. Thanks guys.
