There is no phone number accessible from Canada.  The only phone # is the one
listed in the ad.  Contrary to the ad's discription, it is NOT an St506 control
er.  It is a "wedge" type adapter for IBM hard disk controlers.  It is manufact
ured by Spirit Technologies.  Yes, it's the same one that was mentioned earlier
 and NOT recomended.  So... unless you already have a controler, it would be
cheaper to use a SCSI/Adaptec combination.
