I am looking to add 2 additional hard drives for storage but I have used up all of the current Sata ports on my mobo. Can anyone suggest a controller card for either PCI express 1x or PCI that will support at least 2 SataII ports. I have been looking but haven't found any good reviews on anything yet. Thanks in advance.

Whats your price range?Heres one for $59.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16816102060 Good rating too.

nothing too expensive...maybe 100-150 max. The hard drives are only being used for storage of movies and music etc.

Here is a cheap 2-port solution for 2-sata drives. - $29.99

Here is one of the higher-end solutions, Its by XFX and I've heard lots of people praising it on other forums. - $89.99

*EDITED first link, wrong card.

Looks like this is the one that I will go for. Have always had good luck with promise raid controllers. Thanks for your help.
