I apologize for the repeat post; I should have ask this question the first
time around. I hope this is not too hardware specific for this list (is
there an Alpha hardware mailing list?).

background: have an Alpha 2000 5/250 with KZPAC-CA 3ch controller,
running 4.0g, want to upgrade to 5.1a

Q: If KZPAC-CA is not supported under 5.1a, what is the recommended 3
channel SCSI controller that is supported under 5.1a, and will it work with
our current disks?

disk setup:
ch0 slot0 re0 rz28d-vw 2.0g
ch0 slot1 re1 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch0 slot2 re3 rz29b-vw 4.3g
ch0 slot3 re3 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch0 slot4 re4 ds-rz28m-vz 2.0g

ch1 slot0 re0 rz28d-vw 2.0g
ch1 slot1 re2 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch1 slot2 re3 rz29b-vw 4.3g
ch1 slot3 re3 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch1 slot4 re4 ds-rz28m-vw 2.0g

ch2 slot0 re1 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch2 slot1 re2 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g
ch2 slot2 re3 rz29b-vw 4.3g
ch2 slot3 re3 ds-rz1cb-vw 4.3g

Thanks for any help or advice you can give me!
