I have the P5N-E-SLI mobo. I would like to add a board with four additional SATA II Internal Ports. I have tried the SYBA 4-port board but it never comes up cleanly.
Please help.

Please give greater level of detail eg. type of board PCI, PCI-E, OS you are using etc.
What do you mean by it not coming up clearly? any error messages you can report?

I was trying a Syba SD-SATA2-4IR PCI SATA II 4x Internal Ports RAID Controller with SIL3124 Chipset. Everytime I tried it came up with the warning: "Have Option Rom can not be invoke (Vendor ID:...etc" The message flashed too fast to completely read. It would then not find my NVidia mirror Raid and the system would not boot up. Once I removed the devices from the board then it would boot up correctly. This is a PCI board.
