Review: Great works fine - Wonderful and fast blazing copying speeds! easy to install then tell windows 8 to find the drivers and away you go
Review: Great combo card - This PCI card provides an upgrade path for older PC's without SATA support. It allows you to configure the SATA ports for internal or external use (with limits). Works fine under Windows control, but no onboard BIOS so the usefulness at boot time is more limited. Although I had no need for an extra IDE connection, the board also includes one IDE socket.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great works fine
*by B***N on February 14, 2013*

Wonderful and fast blazing copying speeds! easy to install then tell windows 8 to find the drivers and away you go

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great combo card
*by M***D on November 3, 2011*

This PCI card provides an upgrade path for older PC's without SATA support. It allows you to configure the SATA ports for internal or external use (with limits). Works fine under Windows control, but no onboard BIOS so the usefulness at boot time is more limited. Although I had no need for an extra IDE connection, the board also includes one IDE socket.

### ⭐ Didn't work well at all for eSTATA Hard Drive
*by A***S on December 17, 2009*

Bought this card specifically for doing system backups to an external hard drive. I can't attest to how well the internal SATA or IDE ports work. Installation went OK, Win7 correctly identified it and automatically downloaded drivers for it from Windows update. So I thought "Hey great, no need to fool with the mini CD driver disk labeled SUTUP SOFTWARE (sic)". I was averaging about 25-30 Mb per second transfers on the external hard drive via USB 2.0, and expected to multiply that by at least 2-3 times. But sadly, this card's eSATA port would jump off the starting block at about 75 Mb per second, then very quickly slow down to 50, then 25 then 10 and within 30 seconds transfer rates were down to 2-3 Mb per second. I benchmarked the drive using this card's eSATA port with no less than 6 different hard drive benchmark utilities, and every single one of them timed out (program not responding), due to bottlenecked inability to access and test the drive. I thought maybe the Win7 obtained driver was a possible culprit so I used the SUTUP SOFTWARE (sic) mini CD and it had NO DRIVERS for OS newer than XP on it, and all it did was install a startup RAID Tool that I didn't want or need and had trouble getting rid of (wouldn't uninstall through Control Panel - had to do it the brute force way). Then I searched the web and found a Vista driver for it that I also tried - it had a newer date by one month than the Win7 driver, but it was much worse - the whole OS bogged down with it in use and it took almost FIVE MINUTES for the external hard drive to even be recognized. I re-installed the original Win7 drivers and did one last eval on it. No dice. Ten minutes after commanding a 4 Gb file to be copied to the external drive, less than 2 Gb was transferred and the transfer rate was down to 2 Mb per second. What was I thinking expecting more from a $17 card? Didn't work for me.
