XFX Revo64?

I have the 5 port version. I have 5x250G Samsung SATA drives in a Raid3. It is much faster than my rocketraid404 in raid0. I love this card. Fault tolerant and performance to boot. Plus if you lose a drive, there is no performance penalty. It doesnt like small files very much, but that is the only negative I can come up with. One final bonus... no drivers needed. Uses standard ide drivers in windows. Also it is a complete hardware raid... not software.
If you got the cash... It is worth every penny. If you have a pcie board, wait until first of next year.. there is a pcie version coming out.
Have fun!

Update: After living with this card for a bit, I really like it. Unfortunately for me, I max out the pci bus with it.
I have since moved to x64 and had zero troubles with it. Watch those damn sata cables tho... they are fragile.
