Who makes *bootable* ATA PCI controllers? What ones do you all reccomend

All work according to the same principles, and all work in a 7600 up to at 
least 9.x.

The "unobtanium" UltraTek/66 was the most compatible of the bunch, but all 
stock is now gone.

Sonnet is closing out its Tempo UATA/66 controller, and it's a good one, too, 
and comes with X support out of the box (the UltraTek/66 required a firmware 
patch to run X, and that patch fixed some things with pre-X, but also broke 
some things with pre-X).

$49.95 direct from Sonnet for the closeout.

You'll have to go to a UATA/133 conroller in order to get 48-bit LBA, but 
your 7600's bus really can't handle more than an UATA/66, anyway.
