Since we are already off topic, does anyone have any recommendations for a
4 port SATA card that doesn't need to have RAID, but is still high
performance? I have a two port card in my server now, (the on board mobo
only has 2 ports) I'd like to expand it, but I think the card I have now is
not performing well at all, so I'd like to replace it with something that
is proven.

Thanks
Tom
