Adaptec 2047600 Review:   The Adaptec Serial ATA Host Controller 1205SA provides affordable high performance Serial ATA connectivity for increased performance and data protection. It is ideal for PCs and workstations requiring optimum system performance such as audio/video streaming and gaming. The Adaptec Serial ATA Host Controller 1205SA offers improved system reliability by adding 32-bit CRC error checking for all bits transmitted (command, data, and status). Parallel ATA provides CRC only for data packets. Serial ATA also features built-in support for first-party DMA to eliminate bottlenecks associated with on-board DMA controllers. It also minimizes electronic noise that can lead to data transmission errors.One of the biggest breakthroughs offered by the Serial ATA technology is PC-friendly cabling. The thinner insulated SATA cables are much easier to install than the shorter, wider Parallel ATA cables. The smaller SATA cabling allows for improved airflow inside the PC chassis for a cooler component environment.

Lava Computer PCI Review:   The LAVA Parallel-PCI, when it came to market, was the first parallel PCI port card in the world. Fully PCI compliant, it takes advantage of the speed and easy configuration of the PCI bus. When it appeared, it almost tripled the speed benchmarks of ISA-bus parallel port cards, while offering greater flexibility for configuration. Users were no longer restricted to the three standard parallel port addresses: the Parallel-PCI would automatically select a free address and IRQ during installation, virtually eliminating user error and resource conflicts.The Parallel PCI's strength lies in its Moko S-1 ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit). This chip consolidates a number of separate components into one chip, and is only available on LAVA products. Adding efficiency in manufacture, this card virtually eliminates any possibility of component failure.bility of component failure?another reason Lava confidently offers the Lava Lifetime Warranty. Initially, this break-through Lava-designed integrated circuit, was specifically developed for the Parallel-PCI. The Moko S-1 has been since incorporated into a number of other Lava I/O products.
