Suggestions for a good PCI ATA100 controller card

[igowerf]

I was wondering which PCI IDE controller is good. I'd like one that can handle a slightly overclocked PCI bus. I don't want RAID so the controller doesn't need to be a RAID controller. Thanks.

get a Promise TX2 ULTRA 100 IDE Controller PCI!

Thanks for the suggestion. Pricewatch shows it for pretty cheap. Can it handle an out of spec PCI clock?

I'm running one at 40MHz with no problems!

Great! I think I'm gonna get one then. Thanks.

Yes, it is meant to run on a 66MHz PCI clock, but is backwards compatible.
