don't know, but I bought the Asrock DualSata2 last week - ULI based - and 
surprisingly from the hw side were no problems

But I also bought it, because of the socket-upgrade slot and the fast agp-slot 
besides pcie (didn't want to buy a new graphics card). 
If you buy a new card anywhere, such upgrade path is pretty useless for you so 
- if the Albatron has, what you want, and is in the price range, you are 
willing to pay - why not?
