So does anyone know of any other combo that might work well?  I've had
nothing but trouble with my HighPoint 366 based board (have I mentioned I
think Siig makes awful products?) in two different motherbords and with
any OS I've tried it with (hell Win98 thought it was a SCSI adapter...).  
I've got a somewhat older 13gb WD Caviar (claims to support ATA66) and a
30gp Deskstar DTLA.  I'm tempted to try out a Promise ATA 100 board...
