Unfortunately it doesn't look like it works that well :-( Read speeds to a standard drive are great - 70 MB/s. Write speeds are awful - they range on one system at 17 MB/s down to a more modern system at 1.7 MB/s! There is no CPU load. I assume this is a problem with the PCIe bridge. There are no errors or warnings given. I couldn't get MSI interrupts to work on this system. Time to throw the card away I think!
