Hey everyone:
I was interested in getting an ATA/100 RAID card and was wondering which one was the best. I just want to do RAID 0 and spend about $100USD. I saw Promise and Adaptec, but wasn't sure which was the best? Or is there another better than those two? Thanks!

yep, i would have to agree there. Promise is the better in the fact that it has better features.
Eg. Promise - you have a 20gb and a 30gb. you can raid0 and have another 10 drive
Highpoint - in the same scenario, that 10gb would be as good as a gun without bullets.

I have IWill's ATA100 RAID card, and an totally pleased with it. Though I would definitely have opted for Promise had I not gotten this one. I have a Promise ATA100 controller (not RAID) on my Asus A7V. It has worked very well for me.

Thanks for the info guys. I was leaning towards the Promise card but just needed a little more convincing. Thanks again!
