I need a SCSI card to attach a tape library to my system. I am looking at the Adaptec 29320A-R. Can anyone confirm that this card will work with the stock CentOS 4 kernel?

I can't confirm (I've been using LSI SCSI boards for a while now), but all indications look good.

Out of curiosity, what sort of and how many tape drives are in the library?

This is an HP SureStore DLT Library. It has 2 drives and 15 tapes.

Hmmm... The LSI cards are quite a bit cheaper than the Adaptec cards. If they are good, I may go with one of those instead. The LSI00011-F card looks like it has what I need at about half the price of the Adaptec. Which cards are you using?
