Recommended SATA controllers

2007-05-18 Thread Charles Sprickman

Hi all,

I have a fairly nice dual-xeon Supermicro 1U that needs some parts.  It 
has onboard PATA and I'd like to throw some SATA drives in and get an SATA 
backplane for it (machine has hot swap bays, it's missing any sort of 
backplane).


I'll need to put some kind of SATA controller in there.  What can I buy 
that's known to be very stable under 6.2?  I recall that in the past some 
onboard SATA controllers were a little sketchy...


Thanks,

Charles

I find that the Intel series (ICH) controllers are solid and have good 
support (i.e. Hot swap)
