I too picked up one of the ASMedia 1061 cards. It must have been DOA but I did not realize that until later (after the point of no return). I experienced really slow performance and system freezing even on the Windows side. It is in the correct slot and I'm using 6Gbps SATA cables. Just got a bad card, I think.
So I'm looking for alternatives. The Syba card mentioned here looks good and is still available but I'm more curious about this:

I do not hear about any Hackintosh people using them, however. Seems it should be compatible, but the Marvell 9128 chipset isn't getting favorable comments either.
Would love to hear from someone who has used one even in a real Mac Pro.
