As the proud owner of an ST01, my advice is:
Spend the extra bucks to get a real controller!
I tried to plug a Wang SCSI tape drive into it last night, but the
ST01 only talks to hard drives (and probably Seagate ones at that).
Also, the nicer cards give a lot better performance.
Don't get me wrong, the ST01 is completely function (for what it
does), but I think that in the long run you will be disappointed.
