While I can't push it past 5MHz in my 486DX2/66, in my P200 box I was able
to run it full-bore. (I only did so until I could afford a PCI SCSI

This is with an AHA1542B, which appears to be the best of the lot; the 1542C
is a lot more finicky, whereas the B is merely a stickler for proper
termination.
