Al tough the older one advertises itself as a FastTrak, i don't think it differs from the older "SATA 150 TX4" i also have flying around somewhere (From pci.ids i would expect that to be 105a:3318). Currently in use: - snip - 02:01.0 Mass storage controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC40718 (SATA 300 TX4) (rev 02) -> 105a:3d17 02:02.0 RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC20319 (FastTrak S150 TX4) (rev 02) -> 105a:3319 - snip - So technically speaking i could test 3 more or less different variations of that controller, if you want. -- Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
