Booo!!!

I have been trying to get 2 Adaptec 39160 HBA's and one Intraserver 4820 HBA
to work in a PC164LX running T64U v5.1A, but to no avail. Basically it
won't see the devices hanging off of the Intraserver HBA.

The system works with ONLY Adaptec or ONLY Intraserver HBA's but not with
both.

Has anybody seen this or have an idea of how to resolve this?

I have an Adaptec 39160 HBA in my desktop and took it out and plugged it in
to the PC164LX. It showed all three HBA's and their devices.

I know one answer is to get another Adaptec 39160 HBA (approx. $360 USD) but
if there is another way I would be happy to try it.

PS,
Try no to bust my chops about the antique nature of the PC164LX, my
processes are "I/O-bound" and this baby has worked like a champ for 3 solid
years now.
