The Bus Controller is still FWSCSI to the host, but Ultra SCSI to the
disk devices. How's that for backwards? :) However, you can replace
the FWSCSI controller with an Ultra controller and all-of-a-sudden you
have an SC10, not an HVD10.

I wish SOMEBODY made something faster than FWSCSI for the 9x9 systems
(and the K- and D- class HSC systems on the 9000 side). I'm having
this very discussion over on comp.sys.hp.hpux. The options are few ...
as in zero, as far as I know.
