One FreeBSD system here is running drives on an old Adaptec 2940
controller. I would like to upgrade the controller, as the
drives are actually Ultra 160 capable. Can you normally just
swap SCSI drives onto a different controller, and still access
all the data? (like with IDE)
Yes. Depending on the interaction of the drives and the
controller you may not get full performance out of one, But the data
should be accessable.
