I need four or more eSATA ports on one PCI-X controller, stable and
with good performance.  I can use the little SATA-to-eSATA connector
adapters if I have to, but would prefer to have the eSATA ports right
on the board.  I'll be using the disks as components of a software Raid,
so Raid on the HBA is not needed.

What controllers are people having good success with?  Looks like AHCI
and Promise TX[24] are the best ones right now.

I've got a Marvell 6081-based controller now, and it's unstable under
certain conditions...  I'm looking for good hardware with good linux
drivers.  Any suggestions are welcome.
