Hi all
I am building a htpc and currently buying the parts.
I decided to go with the Gigabyte (GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3) MATX mobo
But that mobo has no esata port so I am looking for a reliable low cost esata card.
I looked through newegg and found two but wanted to know if anyone has either or knows if they are good

Rosewill RC-226
Rose will RC-216
 
Why not just buy a mobo with eSATA built in? Built-in eSATA ports will be more reliable and stable than those Rosewill cards.
 
I kinda realize I should maybe invest in a better mobo then the Gigabyte (GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3) MATX mobo I was going to get.

What is one of the best z68 matx mobos I can get?
I am going to use the money I was saving for a 2nd hdd and add that to the mobo budget so I have around ~$200 for a mobo now.
I am putting more money into a mobo because I want it to last and have extras like esata etc.
