Thanks! Based on that, it'd seem it's not so much Sil3132 per se,
but some (too cheaply?) boards built around it, and the obvious
conclusion is that they should only be bought with plan to
test them before real use and return flakey ones.
I _have_ had similar data corruption problems with one Sil3124
card, none with two more, and also none with a 3114 card
(in heavy use for several years by now).
On the other hand I've had similar trouble with a JMicron card
and a Marvell-based card. So planning to test and return
bad cards is probably a good idea with them as well.
