Hello all admins !!!

Thanks to:

     John D. Groenveld
     Hans Schaechl
(and a lot more others...)

Here is the Summary of replies I received.

Some of the SCSI card that would work with Ultra 5 are:
     (1) Adaptec 2940 UW/OF (Open Firmware version)
          the support is now drop, driver is only available until Solaris
2.6.
     (2) LSI/Logic/Symbios 875 based HAB
          This, i wasn't able to find any driver. (If someone has, or knows
where to get, pls. drop me a line.)
     (3) From SUN, they recommend,
          X6540A Dual Channel single-ended UltraSCSI host adapter,
PCI;
                      includes two 2 m SCSI cables

          X5010A Single-channel, single-ended UltraSCSI host
adapter,PCI;
                      cables not included

          X6541A Dual Channel differential UltraSCSI host adapter,
PCI;
                      includes two 2m SCSI cables
          (however, delivery of product is around 30-40 days.)

that's all.
