This is not a flame, but I really wouldn't switch from my
PAS 16 to the SB16 ASP. The main reason is the CD-ROM interface.
Creative Lab's interface is propietary - meaning you'll have
to buy the CD-ROM's that are compatible with it if you intend
to use the card this way.

The PAS 16 has a SCSI-2 interface built in to the card. While
it isn't fast enough to be used as a hard-disk controller,
it is perfect for a SCSI compatible CD-ROM drive, scanner,
etc.

Just my $0.02
