But I have seen reports from Windows users about brokeness of some integrated (and not integrated) SATA controllers. Most of FreeBSD users just ASSUME that hardware works with Windows, because they (users of FreeBSD) dont read forums of Windows users. Just try "SII3112 Windows trouble", also pay attention, that most Windows users just dont know which SATA controller is embeded to their motherboard.
