This is the "original" Linux NCR/Symbios/LSI Logic driver. I would NOT use this, 
but favor the BSD-ported ones (the following two drivers) or even the new 
"Version 2" driver:

>SYM53C8XXX SCSI Support

The SYM driver is the successor of the NCR driver. Unless your SCSI host is 
"old" (which I don't assume because you have a 53C875) you should use the latter 
of the above two.

>SYM53C8XXX Version 2 Scsi support

This driver is brand-new and supposed to be the successor to the SYM53C8xx 
driver, so I guess this is the best choice of all the above drivers.

Can't comment on performance, tho.
