I really like the Delta cards, but syncing four 44s may be a bit of a challenge. If you can swing it, I highly recommend going with 2 Delta 1010s. You'll get the 16 channels of I/O, using only 2 PCI cards, plus the breakouts will be easily accessible in 2 rackmountable units. Syncing the 1010s is pretty straightforward, you'll just need one S/PDIF cable to connect the 2 cards.
