Yeah well, I am not using raid but I use the controller with 2 sata 
drives. I dont see why raid wouldnt work? I had a slight problem though 
when I used extended mode for sata drives from the bios, but when I used 
compatibility mode which use the irq of secondary pata controller, then 
things were working fine... Well, I didnt read secondary pata controller 
anyhow so I didnt care much...
