This isn't exactly right. Copied below [snip] SeriTek/1VE2+2
The card in question is a 1V4 not a 1VE2+2.

You can only go as fast as the drive can read or write, whichever

These are identical cards with different configurations of ports, the
V4 has four internal ports, the 2+2 has two internal and two external
ports. Otherwise they are identical cards.

Hi All
I recently installed a SeriTek 1V4 in my PM G4 and PM G5 the transfer speed is
88 sec's per GB on a 114 GB CCC. I was under the impression it would a lot

doing something wrong? Both HDD's are 2TB 7200 RPM

That doesn't seem right. On my Mac Mini I can get 18/19 MB per second
(~1.1 GB per minute) copying from one SATA drive in a USB enclosure to
another SATA drive in a USB enclosure and almost 35MB per second (~2.1
GB per minute) copying from said external to the 5400RMP internal.
Perhaps its a

This isn't exactly right. Copied below are replies from FirmTek support about
their SeriTek line of SATA I controllers, which would seem to support SATA II
speeds in almost all circumstances where such speed is available:
