That matches my experience with rr622 as well. I replaced it with a Sil3132 card I had around, I also have a Sil3124 card in my system now. I've been thinking of replacing the cards with ASM1061 based ones....but things have been stable, so not sure I really want to go poking around inside my computer just to try different cards. Though I have plans to drop in another SSD to use as L2ARC in the future (had picked up a Velocity Solo x1 card a while back.... ) ----- Original Message ----- > I picked up an external PMP/Cage/RR6622 combo that claims to be Sata > III.
