There are no known data-corruption issues with Promise SATA cards.
However, some of them, especially the 2nd generation SATA300 TX4,
are known to trigger intermittent error interrupts (that are dealt
with but may cause a speed reduction) in some systems. We're still
scratching our heads on that issue.
But see this thread:

Personally I would not recommend Promise SATA300 TX4 at the moment.
