The only I can confirm this. We are running a machine with an Adaptec 3200S / 64 MB controller and it's simply **very fast**, even with RAID5. And it wasn't that expensive (i mean, i have seen lots of more expensive cards as well). Btw, as far as i know, these Adaptec RAID cards are derived from DPTs, and DPTs were always very good.
