The AHA-2940 Ultra host adapter is the ideal PCI-to-SCSI host adapter
for entry-level servers and workstations. It moves data fast -- up to 20
MByte/sec. And it connects up to 7 SCSI devices for expanded storage
capacity. In addition, the AHA-2940 Ultra adapter delivers unrivaled
system and peripheral compatibility.

So, you have a HW limitation...
