That still dosen't connedt SATA to a non sata board though. That's my
situation I have 6 SATA drives but no SATA native board. Looking for a
cheap addin card to build this upon.

I'll buy Intel SRCS16 (500$) this week, will talk to u later about it's compatibility and performance for RAID 5 with 4 SATA drive.

My questiin is now, how do i  test SATA RAID performance ?
Is there any tools or program to do some benchmark ?

please help me...

I try to test with dd simple command

dd if=/dev/amrd0s1d of=/dev/null
^C31297+0 records in
31297+0 records out
16024064 bytes transferred in 7.970548 secs (2010409 bytes/sec)

the result is very slow performance (-+ 2 Mbytes/sec), with write cache enable on drive. :(
