I forgot to mention that it is indeed sold as a RAID system (and it seems to work under XP Pro) and that I have selected "Ignore BIOS port disabled setting on FastTrak" and "Use PCI DMA by default when available". (I also tried to switch PCI-slot for my networking card, but the effect was that the PDC now shares interrupts with more on-board USB devices instead of the network card.) Thanks Mårten Berggren
