Works well, great communication 03/30/2015
This review is from: SYBA SD-VIA-1A2S VIA PCI SATA 1.5G / IDE ATA 133 Combo Controller Card / Supports Raid 0, 1, 0+1, JBOD, non-RAID mode
Pros:
When I first got it, it did not work. I emailed tech support and within one hour got a reply. They said to install newer BIOS on the motherboard. I did that, and the controller card now works great. I needed the PATA ports and the SATA are nice to have. The price was great, it works very well, and I am very impressed with the communication because it was both prompt and correct.
Cons:
The only thing that I can say is that the SATA are not the faster ports. See comment below.
Overall Review:
If one needs fast 6 Gb/S SATA, Syba makes several boards that do that. I bought the one with 4 SATA ports and it works very well and it is fast too. I bought this board because I needed PATA ports (the older kind with the ribbon cable)
There are many companies that import product, but few that stand behind it well and give good tech support. Syba has earned my business. Newegg finds good companies to work with, and Newegg has earned my business for being right there to support me.
