Brian, 
I've two Adaptec controllers:
- aha-2940/w/2940uw
- aha-2944uw
They're not supported by VMS (IIRC). Not supported doesn't mean won't work.
Is there a way to let VMS use them?

I'm using aha-2940uw adapter on my DS10.
You need to add the following lines to SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$USER_CONFIG.DAT:

--- cut here ---
device                   = "Adaptec AHA-2940UW"
  name                   = PK
  driver               = sys$pkadriver.exe
  adapter             = PCI
  id                       = 0x81789004
  boot_class       = DK
  boot_flags       = HW_CTRL_LTR, UNIT_0
  flags                 = SCSI, PORT, BOOT
end_device

There you go, replete with the data for SYS$USER_CONFIG.DAT.



Also I have patched OVMS 8.4 CD which supports this adapter.
