I have an AMD 939 MB w/ Nvidea on the motherboard and 4 500GB SATA II drives in a RAIDZ. I have the $20 Syba SATA I PCI card with 4 120GB drives in another RAIDZ. I get 550 MB/s on the 1st and 82 MB/s on the 2nd in the local system. From another, faster system, over Gigabit NFS I get 69MB/s and 35MB/s. I'm taking a big hit from the SATA ! PCI card vs the motherboard SATA II it seems.
