SATA card doesn't seem to work

[rockx4]

I bought a pci SATA card, this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002PX9BX2

I can't seem to get it to work correctly. I needed a couple of extra SATA slots, I already have all 6 used on my motherboard, so I figured I would get a cheap one and put my dvd drive on it.

The card is able to recognize the drive during boot-up, however the system gets stuck at "loading operating system" for some reason. If I remove the dvd drive from the SATA card, then my system boots up normally.

could be the card does not support optical drives, I have seen some of them not support it, I looked in the manual but it does not state if it does or not. could email vantec and see.

What's your boot order in bios? Is boot from optical drive 1st? May or may not be your problem.
