HELP!!: Non-Raid PCI SATA 2x150 Add-On Card
Does anyone have a NON-RAID PCI SATA add on card that they use which has worked relatively well?

I'm planning on buying 2x500 GB SATA Seagate Hard drives during this holiday season. Please let me know. Thanks.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

At this time, getting a new motherboard is a waste. I will be getting one within the next two years when I build a new computer.

I just need an upgrade in internal storage, preferably that can hold 2 SATA DATA drives, not system drives.

Thanks for the help though, Cetra.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Since all of the cheap SATA cards use the same handful of chipsets, you really might as well get a cheaper 2-port card and roll with it. This might work for you.
I thought with a raid card you would automatically have to use it. So if you don't have to, then it would work for me. The one you posted is the one I have been looking at and reading reviews on. I just wanted an outside opinion that has experience with these cards & more knowledge then I do.

I just want to add on 2x500 GB SATA hard drives and not use them in raid.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
