After reading the other replies, I'll guess I'll be the only one to say 
something negative then... 

Got a 9550SX 4 port on a Tyan K8WE. Updated drivers, updated firmware and bios 
- nothing helped. Whenever I had high IO loads the system would crash. 
Eventually disabling write cache reduced the IO enough for the system to be 
stable.
