Promise FastTrak100 TX4 - Opinions?

This is a discussion about Promise FastTrak100 TX4 - Opinions? in the Windows Hardware category; Is anybody here using the FastTrak 100 TX4? This is the RAID 0+1 controller that has 4 IDE channels on rather than the 2 found on the original FastTrak 66/100 & TX2. I'm liking the idea of this card, means I can run my RAID 0+1 array (40x 60GB IBM drives) with all 4 drives having their own IDE channel.

If anybody here is using one can you tell me what kind of performance you get etc?

I have one...but have never used it. Bought it used and am not able to install XP Pro on it on my Tiger MP dual Athlon board. I can install WinME so I know it works but since ME sucks goats and isn't dual capable, I don't use my Promise card.
 
Anybody have any ideas as to installing it on a Tiger MP let me know.
