     An adaptec 2940U2 would work just fine, though if you
wanted something a bit lower in cost the 1xxx series works
too.  As far as drives go, IBM rocks my world.  Snag a
couple Ultrastar's (9LP's are fairly cheap) and have at it.
Just remember that with a U2 controller you need drives with
a U2 (and not u2w) interface.
