Not this particular one. However, my main server is running on an ABIT BP6
with 2 x Celeron 533's, and this also has the HPT366 controller.
The main disks in that machine are Wide-SCSI, but since big IDE disks are
som much cheaper that their wide-SCSI equivalents, I also put in a 20GB
ATA-66 drive on the HPT366. While it all "works", this machine
does freeze
on a reasonably regular basis, which I also attribute to the HPT366.
Basically, I agree that these Highpoint controllers are CR*P, and don't
want
anything more to do with them. I've ordered a Promise ATA-100 card from
Dabs, which I'll put in the Jukebox machine in the next few days (probably
at the weekend).
I'll let you know howI get on...
Paul G.
