That would be an excelent idea :)
As usual I'll try to get any ATA/SATA HW that shows up on my doorstep
working, thats the deal.
I dont have the means nor the motivation to spend my own hard earned $$
on all kinds of HW to get someone out there free support, simple as that..
That said, I do have a HT1000 based board around a supermicro H8SSL that
is used as a busy local fileserver, needless to say it works flawlessly.
So, to get this worked on and hopefully fixed, get me a failing board to
work on here... private mail with address details etc can be had on
request...
