Sorry, shouldnt be so vague, I dont think they are IBM cards either,
though IBM have rebadged a lot of things from MYLEX, so its not
always easy to tell but the card certainly sounds like its one of the
good ones for server use, ie, Made by MYLEX.

Will fit RS/6000 or IBM PCServer720's etc, though a quick search
hasnt produced any AIX drivers but I'd be surprised if there there
not out there somewere, for other Unix's as well.

Also after grabbing the pic from eboy, increasing its size and applying
sharpning filters, the DALLAS chip is just a CMOS one, no SRAM for
data retension. The daughter board though might be for data retension
or simply cache expansion.
