Hey guys, i'm looking for a pci based sataII controller

it does not need raid (though it wouldn't hurt)
it DOES need to be compatible with optical drives
2 ports would be good - 4 would be better

i ask as i've just been given a decent sata dvd writer and would like to get a new sata hdd too but my m/b is old and has no onboard sata ports.

which card should i go for??

cheers for any help
