Decent, cheap SATA card?

scoop · 3 Jan 2008 at 13:16

Having run out of SATA ports on my P4P-800S SE board, I'm pondering a SATA card to increase my storgage capacity. Any recommendations for a decent value PCI SATA card?

No real need for RAID support. It'll be on PCI, so I guess SATA-I would do it; I expect I'm unlikely see SATA-II speeds over the PCI bus. Ideally, 4 ports would be good...........

That looks like the sort of thing I'm after.

Any other suggestions from personal experience?

Via sata cards seem to be perfect. I have used 3 of them and they did the job perfect. Silicon image cards on the other hand gave me nothing but serious problems.
