Recommended S-ATA controller?

2007-10-01 Thread Peter B

What S-ATA controller is recommended for a x86/FreeBSD-6 (or 7) that is
stable and reliable in terms of hardware design, and software drivers ..?

My current Promise card is said to abuse PCI burst mode, in essence exploit
to tight timing margins. And the motherboard doesn't have any option to
disable pci-burst. This gives intermittent errors.

I have had good experience with the Areca SATA cards, they also have good 
support for Linux/FreeBSD. Give it a try. 

BTW, those cards are very fast, especially the PCI-E ones
