I have a Promise Utlra66 Card that is working great with a couple of WD
Ultra DMA 66 drives
On top of that, it's inside a BP6 system in the slot that share an Irq with
a HPT??? ide controller. Everything works great without any lockups. I am
not using the HPT contoller at this time.
I'm using Raid 0.9 with the IDE patches.
