What kernel/driver are you using for the S150 SX4? I couldn't ever get better than 13MB/sec from it in 2.6. Of course, the last I tried was 2.6.3. I could get 55MB/sec using 2.4 and Promise's partial source driver, but since my onboard SATA controller works fine in 2.6 I'm just using that meanwhile.
