Yes, I have successfully got an SVEC (Ricoh type) cradle working in an
old Pentium1 PCI2.1 compliant board with an Enterasys card.

One annoying thing is that when PCI type stuff isn't working (eg: PCI2.2
cards in PCI2.0 motherboards), they can half work, but not completely
work (much to my intense annoyance). So it's something to keep in mind
if you're having whacky problems.

All of my testing with this sort of thing has been under Linux, I can't
tell you what happens under Windows*
