uVaxII with 3rd party disks

Has anybody done this yet?

What I just found out today is there's an Emulex Qbus controller
for smd disk drives.  (The SC03/BX I think)  I'm curious how people
feel about this controller (We'd hang eagles off it because we
know eagles run well).  Will it overrun the bus on the uVaxII?

I just saw an article in (Was it Hardcopy?) something anyway,
claiming that the disk system and controller on the uVaxII
was *BAD* and had a hard time supporting 4 users.  But would 
it be any better with this emulex gadget and eagles?

Or, now that some people have had uVaxen for awhile, how do
they feel with users on them?  i.e. is this Hardcopy article
full of it?

Respond by mail and I'll summarize.
