In my previous computer I had an Adaptec 2910 or 2920 card, so your 2940 would certainly work. But there is another solution: when I bought a new PC in January, I was too lazy to transplant the SCSI card from the old to the new PC. Instead I bought a small SCSI-to-USB adapter from Adaptec. The SCSI end plugs into the scanner, the USB end into the computer (or a USB hub). It works very well.
