Correct. I meanwhile found a list of supported hardware which says
that R60 HFA03 supports that SCSI controler, but not R61 current
version. The next future HFA release of R61 media will support it. 

R60 HFA03 media are available for order at Checkpoint, but
unfortunately I couldn't: Their database knows that I received an
early R60 media kit in May 2005, and thus does not let me order
another one, not even R60 HFA03. I've contacted the Checkpoint
service.

*SMILE* That's exactly the problem I have. Power license. Even If I
 get that R60 HFA03 media, I doubt that it will accept the
 license. Usually new license features are accepted only by new
 software releases (or latest HFA).

I'll describe once I found a way to do.
