Promise FastTrak100 TX2: two cards in one system possible?

S

Sagau

Hi!

I would like to put another Promise Fasttrak TX2 Raid pci cards into my
system to
be able to add more hds to it.

Is this possible?

Will there be any conflicts (ie. as far as I know there must be a
boot-drive selected in the config menu of the promise card... what will
happen if each card has a boot drive selected...? )

OS is WinXP.

Does anybody have experience with that?

Thanks.

Best regards
Pete

Apparantly not.

Plenty have been told by Promise that it isnt possible.

I have mixed SCSI adapters with Promise adapters (which emulate SCSI) but never more than one Promise adapter. If you can't select individual adapters in the system BIOS (usually the case) the system will boot from the first SCSI adapter detected whose BIOS is enabled.
