I had 2 adaptec 28220SA's (actually still have them) and they were the biggest
pieces of cr at p I had. They regularly trashed drives, and hard locked
regularly. After replacing the cards with 3ware 9550's, no problems.
Maybe it was a problem between the sata drives and the card, but who has time
to fight that. Hopefully they are better now. I might try them again in a
Windows box, but their linux support wasn't very good.
