The ones I have are JW J7F4K1G5 A, I guess. I will check tomorrow if this
is really printed on all boards (I just bought them as such).

Sorry, but this is the onboard controller. The additional one is this:

atapci0: <SiI SiI 3114 SATA150 controller> port
0xff00-0xff07,0xfe00-0xfe03,0xfd00-0xfd07,0xfc00-0xfc03,0xfb00-0xfb0f mem
0xfdfff000-0xfdfff3ff irq 11 at device 8.0 on pci0

But it is not on the same irq, either.

This is not the latest patch (of 28th May) in my case, it is still the one
from the 19th. The other image was still building when I left work, I will
try it tomorrow.

As Oliver already suggested, I will take out the controller and see what
happens then.

Talking about this controller: This is also the only board I am using with
PCI cards (and thus with a PCI riser) at all. I remember vaguely that I
had a few problems getting the controller to work in the riser card when
it put the system together. The riser has two ports, and the controller
would only work in the upper one afaicr. This is the riser card which
comes with the Travla C146 chassis. Does anyone else here have experience
with it? It came without any documentation, and I was not able to find
anything about it on the web. There is even a jumper on it I do not know
anything about?!
