That looks like a nice card, and Adaptec is a name I respect.

x1 or x4.
Price range?
Under $50 per SATA3 port, including cables, whatever.
Expected performance level?
Comparable to current/ recent Intel desktop chipsets/ motherboards.
Workstation or dedicated server?

x1, x4, or x8 slot
debian-user:
Can anyone recommend a PCI Express 2.0 SATA 3 host bus adapter with good
FOSS licensing/ documentation/ support? I'm looking for at least two
SATA 3 ports; four ports would be ideal. I don't need RAID.

Hi to all,
Sata 3 seems to have problems with all versions of Linux that I have thrown at
them.
PClinuxOS 2010.07 on right click with mouse make the system non-responsive,no
keyboard or mouse clicks, and basically no real screen display-only a white
screen and no "X" on rebooting.

Has anyone had any problems running Debian or indeed any other OS in raid 1 on
Sata 3 drives.
It does appear to me that Sata 3 is not really supported in the latest
kernels, if that is where support actually lies.
