The normal or so called fast SCSI (AHA 2940) will provide 10 MByte /sec. As
you record your CD with lets say 4x speed wich is 150 KBytes / sec x 4 = 600
KByte / sec any SCSI controller will be fast enough. The Ultra will allow
speeds of 20 MByte / sec, the UW 40 MBytes / sec and 15 instead of 7
Devices.
