5 out of 5 stars Did what I wanted it to do   September 4, 2008
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I bought this card to help me flash my Xbox 360 (Benq drive)

I didn't have any sata ports in my motherboard, so I had to buy a sata card with the right chipset (VIA).

I found this one, was the cheapest and had the right chipset I was looking for, so bought it right away.

And it did just what it was supposed to. Easy to install. It brings a mini-cd with drivers and quick installation guide... I just put the cd, windows recognized the drivers and installed it.

Then I used it to flash my xbox 360 drive and it did pretty well. ^^, (The package brings a Sata cable, but I used the one I already had)

The cheapest doesn't always mean the worst. This is a great quality product =D

As I didn't have any problems with this card, I give this 5/5 stars ^^



4 out of 5 stars Good basic disk controller   June 25, 2008
  6 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is just a fine disk controller for anyone wanting to do a really basic install of a SATA disk into an old PC.

I wanted a bigger disk, but didn't want to be stuck with a PATA one to fit my old PC, so I got a SATA one and bought this controller card. After an hour diagnosing that one of my PCI slots was bust, this card worked fine.

The only grumble was that the quickstart guide they ship only gets you as far as getting the card installed, it doesn't cover actually using it to partition and format a new disk! Instructions are on their website though...

I can't comment on the RAID support, as that isn't what I wanted it for.
