Well, in case your curious about my experiences to date...
I've been using a 1 channel LSI U160 card with a 15k.3 for a while now, and its been working great. My card wouldn't work with your drive, because its 68 pins though. Just wanted to say that I am quite pleased with the performance of th LSI card to date. The bios on it is kind of confusing though...
LSI is also a big partner of seagate and maxtor, doing all the new scsi and Serial Attached SCSI research on new products, so I would tend to trust their products.
As far as products to buy... You could either get a card with an 80 pin scsi port on it, or you could get a 80 to 68 pin adapter for the drive. That would probably be your best bet, if you want to put the drive in your computer's case, rather than an external case, as most cards don't have an 80 pin port on them.
