Subject: Re[2]: Sata Sil3512 bug?

Hello,

Alexander, does these problems with the Promise SATA300 TX4 happen to
everyone?

The only alternatives are
using soft-raid products as normal controllers. Does anyone have experiences
with the following products?
* Highpoint RocketRAID 1640 (150 MB/s)
* Highpoint RocketRAID 1740 (300 MB/s)
* Adaptec 1210SA
