[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] DTC 3280 SCSI adaptor

I'm interested in purchasing a SCSI adaptor for a Seagate 383MB disk.
IME has a DTC 3280 (16bit) which supposedly has connections for 7 hard disks
and 4 floppies. It also comes with drivers for formatting. There is also
a driver which you will need loaded if you have another type controller
in your system. That bothers me. If I have a WD MFM as well as the SCSI
I have to keep a driver loaded at all times. Are other SCSI controllers
the same in terms of having to use a loaded driver for this purpose? Can
this cause problems with video controllers as well?

For the price of the DTC $129 is there a much better solution?
What about DOS/Unix compatibility? Any help is very appreciated!
