Has anyone used the Promise SuperTral SX6000 IDE raid card yet. If so what is your opinion?

Steve, do you actually have one or is this a pre-sales question.  Since 3WARE have discontinued their ide raid cards we have only a few choices left.

The Promise line appears a good choice but you would have to compile the driver for SME.  This is on my to do list.  If you have the card I'll be happy to assist you.

I have a Promise SX6000  controller that I need to install SME 5.5 or SME 5.6 on.
The Raid-5 is ready for an OS (Win2K server installs on it and boots from it).
However SME anything will not. It says:
 No Drives Found
