I have an Apple DMA SCSI and a GS Sauce card. I'm very happy with both.
The SCSI is connected to an UltraDrive from GCC. The GS is as fast as
I need it to be( I've got a TWGS too).

The issue of the Harris card vs. the Chinook one has to do with whether
you prefer SIMM's or chips. I prefer SIMM's. They are widely available
and are inexpensive.

It has been implied that the Harris card might be incompatible and the
Chinook one is a safer buy. I can't see why this would be so and just
don't believe that.

The Chinook card is very nice though. However, it seems to me that you
get more flexibility with SIMM's.

As far as the SCSI, I've seen too many messages about ROM upgrades when
it comes to the RAMFast. The Apple card is very nice.
