Promise FastTrack S150 SATA @ MadShrimps

I've been looking all over for a RAID 5 SATA controller and it looks like I might have found one.
"As you can see, the SX4 (lower card) is much bigger as the TX4 (upper card). Notice the heatsink on the TX4 controller and the absence of any heatsink on the SX4. Also notice the SD-RAM slot on the SX4."
whoa!!

RAID 5 isn't really that fast when compared to a 2-drive stripe but having an extra drive in the loop ensures that your data is safe if one drive happens to fail.
