Summary: false advertising
Comment: The Amazon specs say "Support 32-bit at 66 MHz and 64-bit at 133 MHz". This is a lie. This is not a 64-bit PCI card (which would be twice as long), but a 32-bit PCI card. Just look at the Amazon picture, then look up PCI on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component_Interconnect) and you'll see that this card is indeed 32-bit PCI.
Also, it does not run at 66 MHz. The box clearly says, "Support 32-bit at 33MHz". To run at 66 Mhz it would need to support 3.3 volts, and many reviewers at NewEgg.com have said that it does not support 3.3 volts.
Lastly, when I connected it to a 3 Gb/s SATA II disk, the controller's property sheet clearly said that's running in SATA I mode at 1.5 Gb/s.
So, this product's claims are false.

Summary: Faultless
Comment: I needed this card in order to run an external SATA drive, on a system that did not have built in SATA interface. It installed easily and ran perfectly. I was up and running in under 10 minutes.
