Motherboard Recommendation

[James Seward]

It's upgrade time, and a friend is donating me an Athlon64; all I need
to do is choose a motherboard to put it on (and carry the rest of my
existing hardware over).

My only requirement is that SATA works. My current setup (with an
SI3112) encounters DMA timeouts regularly on the SATA disks leading to
slowdowns, instability, and (in one case) a trashed partition. I don't
care about RAID, I'm not going to be using GEOM or anything like that, I
just want to plug my disks (Maxtor DiamondMax9s) into it and have it
work.

Can anyone recommend, preferably backed up by personal experience, a
motherboard or chipset which reliably works with FreeBSD and SATA? :)

Thanks,
James
