I can get the Acard for just over $100, the Tempo is not yet shipping, but may be by the time my dual-800 does. Which would you guys recommend? I just want to add extra storage to the Quicksilver internally. RAID would be okay, but not necessary. I plan on using OS X (and 9.2), Final Cut Pro, Photoshop, Freehand, iDVD, etc. Storage for captured video is of most importance. I have 2 80GB 5400 FW drives, and 2 80GB 7200 to add inside. I also have a couple of 40GB 7200 RPMs, that I would like to add. I BTO'd the Dual with just a 40 GB 5400, so it's coming out.

Could you tell me where to pick up the Acard? Im in the market for an new IDE card, and am waiting for ATA 100 cards to be on the market. Should provide better bandwidth for cheapo RAID arrays than ATA 66 did. I would appreciate any linkage to online retailers. Thanks.
