Editorial Reviews:

This PCI Host Adapter can upgrade your desktop computer to have dual Serial ATA RAID Channels. It can support Low profile PCI and regular size PCI both. The board provides a 32bit, 33/66 MHz PCI interface on the host side and dual, fully compliant Serial ATA ports on the device side to access Serial ATA hard disk drive. Striping (RAID 0) and Mirroring (RAID 1) improve the data performance and provide the data redundancy.

Summary: Awesome product survived TEN computers and still going.
Comment: Hey guys,
This thing is so great, I've installed the same card on 11 computers in less than three years, one even have windows 2008, but no -- I've had no problems. I've included the list below as a grand testimony to its greatness. My servers have Windows Servers 2003 (various editions). Again, there were no incident.
1) VPRMATRIX1800 ======== $1800 Dream Matchine (P4 256kb 400Mhz 1.8 512mb DDR-400 w/ Geforce2)
2) MitchelleSERVER01 ==== Gigabyte GA9IVDT, XEON 3.8 Ghz DDR2-400 EM64T Rage II
3) VPRMATRIX [rebuilt from #1] -- P4 256kb 1.8 Ghz 2GB DDR-400 with Wildcat Realizm 100
4) DELL OPTIPLEX ====== Xeon 3.8 Ghz 2mb 4GB DDR2 DIMM +1GB DDR2 SIMM
5) CLIENT a (P4 3.06 Ghz. Prescott 512mb) 1GB super low-latency DDR-400 Wildcat Realizm 100
5) USER -- a (P4 1.4 Ghz (512kb 400Mhz) RDIMM--800Mhz w/ Geforce6200 PCI)
6) DEV-SERVER03 ==== 4 x NEC Express5800 PIII Xeon 6GB SDRAM Geforce6200 DDR2 OC
7) FRONT END -- P4D 2x2mb (dual core) , 1mb DDR2-533, Geforce8600 GT OC
8) FRANCISSTRONG Gateway 3.0 Ghz (800 Mhz. Northwood) 2GB DDR-400 Geforce 7300LE 128mb
9) MitchellSERVER-03 4x XEON MP 1.4 Ghz. 4gb DDR
10) MARA Custom 3.0 Ghz (800 Mhz Northwood) 3.0 Ghz (800Mhz Northwood) 3.5GB DDR-400
11) MNMAIN -- (cannot release details yet,. Its still in service)
By the way, Its also good for bypassing S.M.A.R.T, not that you should ever do such a thing. And the driver? Its just a standard Silicon Image driver. Nice disk with good device cross-compatiblity. I've had my "wow!" moments.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Works well but nightmare to install
Comment: This card works fine but the driver was a nightmare to install. XP recognizes the card but refuse to install the driver. Tried to download the latest driver online but still didn't work. Read in couple forums that you need to flash/update your bios to recognize the driver if your computer is old or your motherboard is a particular brand. Anyhow, finally got it to work.
Also, I think one manufactures makes all the SATA RAID cards it just gets re-branded so you might still experience this issue even if you purchase another brand. (I bought two different branded SATA raid PCI cards and they were both made by the same manufactures giving me the same exact driver problems.)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Easy to install, its does what is suppose to...
Comment: easy to install, drivers and instruction are clear... but my hard drives give me more points with the mobo/RAID controller (intel). than with this card... (drop a few points only...)
