Hi,

I'm looking to buy a Promise SATA300 TX4302 (PCI->[e]SATA) card to use 
for external backups on a FreeBSD 6-STABLE system. Can anyone share 
their experiences with this one?

Also, the box is a pretty old hardware; pardon my ignorance, what should 
I check to see if the PCI bus will accomomdate the card? The card 
description[1] mentions:

# PCI 33/66MHz bus supports up to 266MB/sec burst data transfer rate 
(PCI 66MHz)
# PCI 2.3 compliant

Thanks!
