I think CDW is mistaken in saying it's a PCI-E card, UIO is a proprietary Supermicro bus that some of their motherboards support. http://www.supermicro.com/products/nfo/UIO.cfm Too bad, that's a good price for an 8-port SAS card. I've got some LSI-branded PCI-X and PCI-E SAS cards that have been working very well with ZFS and SATA drives, but the 8-port card was more like $288. Barry
