New SATA driver released by Asus...

[EQuito]

Full package here (ftp://ftp.asuscom.de/pub/ASUSCOM/TREIBER/CONTROLLER/IDE/SILICON_IMAGE/silicon_v10040.zip ).

I loaded v.10040 and everything seems ok, no gains or loses to speak of so far.
I made a basic driver package as Si would've released it:

Serial ATA (SATA) Windows RAID Driver (unofficial):

[amd3001]

if you use serial ata does it take away a ide channel?

how did ASUS get their hands on this...I don't even see this as an available download from the SI website....I am currently running 1.0.0.32 on my IC7-G (same SI 3112 chipset for the onboard SATA in addition to the Intel ICH5R SATA channels).
