+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ahb
+.Nd Adaptec EISA SCSI host adapter driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device scbus"
+.Cd "device ahb"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a
+module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+ahb_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This driver provides access to the
+.Tn SCSI
+bus connected to an Adaptec
+AHA-174X host adapters in
+.Dq Em enhanced
+mode.
+Tagged queueing and synchronous SCSI transfers are supported.
+.Sh HARDWARE
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following SCSI host adapters:

+.Bl -bullet -compact

+Adaptec AHA-1740

+.Sh AUTHORS
+The
+.Nm
+driver was written by
+.An Justin T. Gibbs .
+.Sh CAVEATS
+The Adaptec 174X is very sensitive to SCSI bus termination and cable
+length.
+It may also have difficulties operating with some modern devices
+that, due to their speed, expose timing problems in the controller.
+There are no known mechanisms for working around device incompatibilities of
+this nature.
