I have this:

satalink0 at pci0 dev 6 function 0
satalink0: Silicon Image SATALink 3114 (rev. 0x02)
satalink0: 33MHz PCI bus
satalink0: bus-master DMA support present
satalink0: using ioapic1 pin 3 (irq 11) for native-PCI interrupt
atabus0 at satalink0 channel 0
atabus1 at satalink0 channel 1
atabus2 at satalink0 channel 2
atabus3 at satalink0 channel 3

It is labeled "Dawicontrol DC-154", and easily available for ~60 EUR.
I don't know what chipset their newer models (like the DC-4300, still available
for < 100 EUR) use - would be interesting to know.
