This contains notes about trying to use some old SCSI hardware with AlmaLinux.
Found an old Adaptec AHA-2940AU 5 V PCI card. This has an external 50-pin high-density SE SCSI connector.
Inserted the AHA-2940AU in a Intel® Desktop Board DH67BL with a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2310 CPU. The card was shown as present by the BIOS. The option ROM reports version 1.34.2 from 1998.
With the installation ALmaLinux 8.10 with Kernel 4.18.0-553.5.1.el8_10.x86_64 there was initially no driver loaded for the card:

The TECHNICAL MANUAL LSI53C895A PCI to Ultra2 SCSI Controller gives Vendor ID as 0x1000 and Device ID as 0x0012. The Ubuntu sym53c8xx module supports that PCI identity.
Can't find the kmod-sym53c8xx package in the epel repositories on AmlaLinux 8.10 nor 9.3.
http://linux-mirrors.fnal.gov/linux/elrepo/elrepo/el8/x86_64/RPMS/ has the following 3rd party packages:
