Peter,

An alternative to buying an ATA133 RAID card could be using ATA-to-SATA
adapters.
Using these adapters you could use the built-in SATA RAID support of your
mobo.

Check out "Highpoint Rockethead 100 IDE" (around USD 35-40).
(I am not familiar with SATA, I just happend to see the product in a
catalog.)

Hope this helps!

| In any case, I now need to buy a PCI card to do ATA133 RAID.

I have a pair of Western Digital 80G 8MB buffer
