Hi,

Is there a reason for running the .29 drivers?
the asus supplied .22 and the silicon image .33 seem to be final, but
the
silicon image .47 seem to be beta.

The .29s tend to be the quickest, and most stable.
Try em yourself if you don't believe me

also the .29 dont seem to be availiable from asus or silicon image. are
the
.29 drivers the uber drivers that need to be used with the uber bios?

The .29 drivers will work with any BIOS version, any SATA version, any
number of drives, whether in RAID or not, etc. etc.
I have no idea why they aren't on the Silicon Image site - they were on
there at one point !

Nom,
Have you tried the SI-supplied .33 drivers for comparison to the .29?

Nope.
But plenty of other folks have, and the general concensus is that the .29s
are the best.

I've personally found the .29s to be 100% stable, and hence I won't change
to another version without good reason.
