I used to have a system with an Athlon XP 3200+, an ASUS A7V880 mainboard (iirc) and a Promise SATA150TX4 and a Promise SATA300something, both PCI (no PCI-e) cards with 4 SATA ports. I didn't encounter system resets, but hard lockups with FreeBSD 7 and 8. No kernel messages on the console, everything just hang until I pressed the hard reset button. After about 3 months of testing and frustration I gave up and bought another controller. Regards, Thomas
