It should. Seagate, Adaptec 154x, and Ultrastor 14f hosts are supported
in the stock distribution, and drivers are available for the
WD7000 FAAST, and I think Future Domain 16 bit controllers.
Some disks are a little flakey, and should work in the next
release. Also, the Seagate driver has changed so that
it now supports disconnect / reconnect, and is interrupt
driven, meaning that other tasks are scheduled when
SCSI access is happening.
