Dual Sata Raid Cards

[rurd2di]

Hey guys im just about to buy this card: http://www.ascent.co.nz/productspecification.aspx?ItemID=359940

im just unsure if i would be able to run 2 cards in seperate slots obviously, and use both of them to run drives off.
im gunna run them as just a bunch of disks, no raid or anything as its just a small server.
cheers

It should have no problem running dual cards. The limitation is going to be the 120MB/sec that PCI will limit you to for all drives combined.

That often depends on the cards themselves and the motherboard. I would expect it to work, but unless someone else has tried your exact combination, you won't know for sure.
