I never even opened up my Advansys envelope, since I already had a SCSI
card, the Adaptec 2930. At any rate, I cut it open just for your benefit,
and found that the wnaspi32 file had a 1998 date on it! I bought the SS4000
towards the end of 2000, too! It has no Windows 2000 drivers on the disk.
Totally disgusting. The way I would look at this is, if I can afford the
SS4000, I can afford to spring for a real SCSI card and forget the Advansys.
The Adaptec 2930 costs $100.
