Picked me up one of these.  Looks sexy.  Hopefully the card will work well.

Update - card works beautifully.  My drives are happily migrated over, and everything is well.  Remember - Adaptec, and 3Ware.  Keep Promise away from your computers - and everything will be well, and stay that way.  Don't every use a Promise card.  Period.
