NCV(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual NCV(4)NAMEncv — NCR 53C500 based SCSI host adapter driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device scbus
device ncv
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):

The following devices are currently supported by the ncv driver:
· I-O DATA PCSC-DV
· KME KXLC002 (TAXAN ICD-400PN, etc.), KXLC004, and UJDCD450
· Macnica Miracle SCSI-II mPS110
· Media Intelligent MSC-110, MSC-200
· NEC PC-9801N-J03R
· New Media Corporation BASICS SCSI
· Qlogic Fast SCSI
· RATOC REX-9530, REX-5572 (SCSI only)
