I think you might need to be a little more specific... VIA VT6421a is a chipset, so it can potentially be found in a bunch of different types of PCI cards... could be a RAID controller, could be just IDE or SATA controllers...

Yup
I need a sata controller with this chipset
It's not expensive... Like $7 online but I'd prefer to buy locally if possible.
USB pro kit is like $60
Had to get my system flashed 4 times already cuz of all the updates... So I thought I'd just do it myself this time
I miss the old days where u could just buy a chip once and never touch it again!

Memory express. I usually buy it, then return it after I'm done with it.

You wouldn't happen to have a link to the one you use would you?
I tried looking on their website but can't find any that use the Via chipset...
