Hi, I'm looking for a cheap (<$100) PCI SATA card for external backups on FreeBSD 6-STABLE. Because of the purpose: * the card doesn't have to be top-performing (though SATA300 is desirable); * no RAID is needed; * 1 port is enough; * eSATA jack is nice to have. (if the card has better features than listed here, but is still under $100, that's good too :-)) I have already asked around[1], but the cards people have mentioned have both good and back feedback in the mail archives. It's not clear if the issues people mention have been fixed or not (or that was related to something else altogether). So I'd appreciate if people share their positive experiences. Thanks!
