The Maxtor ATA100 controller card is actually a re-branded Promise ATA100 card.
These things are about as easy to get working under Linux as would trying to
give yourself a root canal. Sounds like an afternoon worth wasting for 33% speed
up? Not likely.

I will use the card if and when I go back to Windows, but not for Linux. Much
easier.
