I've had good luck with a Priam/Vertex V170 on an OMTI 8627.

Just for yucks, I tried to format my old Rodime 203E which I
had in D: when I got the OMTI controller.  Suprised the hell 
out of me when not only did it format, but all the errors
I had been getting with my IBM controller went away - 6 
months later, I haven't seen an error on either drive!  (I used
to get them all the time on the Rodime, and very occasionally
on the Priam.)  Anyone for 650K/sec at 60msec?
