RE: [ukha_d] Re: [OT] UltraATA133PCI RAID Controller - £19.99

[steve.crick@xxxxxxx]

Do you know who makes this card?

Am I going to see much performance increase using this card, over the
Promise ATA100 built into my MB?

I guess for 20 quid, it is worth the investment to give me more expansion room, in nothing else.
