2 - SLOW...
I wanted to make file server so I bought Dell computer and 2 x 1.5GB hard disks and this RAID controller. Vista home premium was installed on Dell and I put this card and connected 2 hard disks as RAID 0 (mirror). It worked. But after installation, I tested the copy speed. It looked strange. It takes to long to copy the files. I changed several settings but it was still slow and about an hour later Vista reported that one of the disk is failing. At that time I found that Dell has RAID 0 function on board. I took out this controller and connected 2 disks to the mother board and set as RAID 0 (it only supports raid 0 - mirror). It works great. Much faster than this controller. In the future I may need another RAID controller to connect more disks because on board sata ports are full now. But I won't choose this one.
5 - Great Product
I now own 3 of these. Two in one computer and one in the other. These have allowed me to use SATA hard drives. The support from the manufacturer was great.
5 - Great RAID controller!
I've got the ADST114 RAID controller hooked up to 4 SATA drives on my home server, and have had no problems at all; everything works just as it should. Installation was a breeze. Note if you are using new drives most likely you'll need to format them. You can do this by going to start and hitting run, then typing in "%SystemRoot%\system32\compmgmt.msc /s", clicking storage, then diskmanagement. Quality RAID controller.
4 - ADDONICS SATA 4-PORT RAID CONTROLLER ( ADST114 )
This card delivers what it promises. I used it to connect my two SATA-150 80GB hard drives on stripping. For the note one HD is Maxtor and the other is Seagate. It works like a breeze. I have used it for a month now and haven't had any problems yet. I use it for HD intensive gaming (DOOM3, HL-2, Area 51, Vampire-Blood lines and the king of all FAR CRY). This setup has give me additional performance in terms of video editing as well. I recommend this card for anybody who is starting on RAID. The card is worth every penny.
