Unfortunately it doesn't look like it works that well :-(

Read speeds to a standard drive are great - 70 MB/s.

Write speeds are awful - they range on one system at 17 MB/s down to a more 
modern system at 1.7 MB/s! There is no CPU load.

I assume this is a problem with the PCIe bridge. There are no errors or 
warnings given. I couldn't get MSI interrupts to work on this system.

Time to throw the card away I think!
