What PCI 32/33 S-ATA controller is recommended for a x86/FreeBSD-6 system
that is stable and reliable in terms of hardware design, and software drivers ?

My current Promise card is said to abuse PCI burst mode, in essence it will
exploit to tight timing margins. And the motherboard doesn't have any option to
disable pci-burst. This gives intermittent errors.

sos@ comments on SII chipsets isn't encourageing either.
