I found a mention of two different ID codes for the card on Google,
but the posting also mentioned having to install the card to find
out which firmware is loaded. Without the disk, there's no way to
tell.

If this is indeed the RS/6000 version, I won't need it and would be
willing to trade for a PS/2 SCSI card (or maybe some other MCA card).
