Based on the industry-standard
Adaptec AHA-2940 architecture,
the AVA-2904 family of adapters
provides the superior compatibility
Adaptec is known for, resulting in
fewer technical support calls and
lower costs. In fact, these PCI-to-SCSI
host adapters deliver the lowest total
cost solution to the OEM.

Simple Installation
With features such as Plug-and-
Play and SCAM (SCSI Configured
Automatically), the AVA-2904 family
of host adapters are designed with
everything needed for simple system
installation and easy peripheral
attachment.

Built in SCSI Performance
Advanced SCSI features such as
scatter/gather, disconnect/reconnect
and tagged command queuing, free
the CPU to handle multitasking I/O
more efficiently. The AVA-2904/2904E
combines fast throughput with mini-
mal demands on the CPU to speed the
handling of large data formats such as
video and 3-D images.

performance. Bus Mastering DMA
makes the AVA-2904/2904E ideal for
multitasking environments by reliev-
ing the CPU from the overhead of I/O

Proven Quality and Reliability
The AVA-2904/2904E host adapters
have undergone thorough testing in
Adaptec’s Product Test Laboratory.
Each board design is subjected to
thousands of hours of functional,
compatibility, and environmental
tests to ensure the highest quality and
reliability. Our commitment to quality
has earned Adaptec’s manufacturing
facility ISO-9002 certification.
