Thanks, I looked through it and couldn't find anything wrong - but at this point you have a working system, so this might be the reason.
Short form: Tyan S2880 with onboard video
That one works fine, we have tested it.
1xIDE used as secondary drive, W*@#$%^s operating system on this one. 1xSATA used as boot drive, SIIG SATA controller as the onboard Promise controller has issues
The onboard Promise does not work and we have not tested the SIIG driver. Maybe some confusion because of these two? I'll check that we do testing in similar environments for 9.1. Looking at Linux I noticed that the SATA drive is /dev/hde and the IDE is /dev/hda. That different numbering might be a problem...
Samsung SM-352B/T806 CD-R/RW-DVD (that's with the latest firmware)

This is probably going to be a common setup, as I'm using an external card for SATA, and on board I/O for regular IDE (including the DVD). The one combo I never tried was the DVD on /dev/hda. I don't think this should make a difference, but I'll try it over the next couple of days and see...
