We have boxes with Abit boards with the onboard HPT370, some Promise Fasttrak100 and one with a Dawicontrol. All are working great (we only use Raid1, Raid1+0), no additional things needed :-) One thing i noticed: the default cable which accompanies the Promise Fasttrak100 didn't support UDMA-100 - don't know why.
