This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It had the features I wanted, and my previous experience with Startech brand is good. It seems to work OK (see cons).
Cons: The software CD was labeled for "2 serial ATA controller with parallel ATA" and the directions were totally wrong. I went to the ST site and got the software there - it was the same stuff. The software is a Via RAID controller - overkill, considering there's only 1 ext. and 1 ESATA port.
I contacted tech support and got these directions for XP:
Thank you for your inquiry! I would recommend downloading the latest drivers/software directly from our website (http://www.startech.com/item-download/PCIESATA2I-1-Port-eSATA-1-Port-SATA-PCI-Controller-Adapter-Card.aspx). The path to the 32 bit XP driver (without software) is PCIESATA2I/VRAIDDrv/XP/x86.
However, when I went to Add/Remove software in XP to remove the Via software, I found one could just remove the RAID config program and keep the drivers, which I did.
Other Thoughts: I was going to drive my DVD burner with this card, and that worked, but I couldn't use the CD to install the software, 'cause the drive wouldn't work - DUH! So I used it for my data drive. Also not sure if this would drive a boot device, since it's not seen by my system until the software loads.
