Can someone recommend a working internal IDE card which supports the needed SCSI commands for Plextor's and is also of good quality.
Thanks.

OK, but I don't want to leave the side of my case hanging open, which is why I asked for an INTERNAL one.

Promise Ultra 100/133 should be okay:

or do you need PCI express?

Yeah I need a pci-e one, my new computer doesn't have pci slots.

I may need to find a workable USB solution, most of them don't work on Windows 7 64 bit or UEFI motherboards according to reviews, or are very very slow and use crappy jmicron controllers.
It's getting more and more difficult to hook up PATA devices. I wanted a decent card so I could make use of my older PATA hard drives too.
