I have a SYBA SD-SATA2-4IR PCI SATA II card in my server that I recently just reinstalled. I went from WHS back to Windows 7. My issue is that since I re installed it this card is causing me grief. I found drivers for this card which is SIL3124 for windows 7 64bit and installed it.

I was able to access the drives that was connected to this card, but when I went to transfer my data back to these drives after 30-45 secs my computer slowed down to a crawl.. The transfer speed starts off around 100mb/s and goes down to 30 or so and just makes the computer start doing crazy hings. My CPU starts going maxing out and then down to nothing along with my ram. I have figured out that it is this card that is causing this. I am able to copy to drives that are plugged into the sata ports on the motherboards but when i transfer to these drives WD20EARS i have this issue.

I have tried re installing the drivers and windows 7 and nothing has worked I am at my wits end trying to figure this out any advice would be great.
 
Get a different card? Not trying to be a wise-guy, it sounds like this card is a low-end PoS...
 
no I hear what your saying but when I was using it on my WHS build i was not having these issues... If there is another card you could recommend It would be great.. I just need a card to add on sata ports no raid etc.
 
Your WHS install was a 32-bit, now you are using it on 64-bit. It's a driver issue.

You won't be able to resolve it on your own, and unless you can get the company to fix their drivers, good luck.

Just buy a different card from a better manufacturer that has better driver support.
