I cannot comment on that Adaptec card but other cards (without fake-raid
controllers built on-top of them) with that chipset work great:

The Marvell 7042 (PCIe) and 6042 (PCI) chips are very stable
and full-featured with the current sata_mv driver in Linux.
The older 6081 and 6041 chips still have issues with Linux,
something I'm working on fixing early in 2009.
