We have the same setup (PRI on a TE410P and TDM400 in the same box).  
We got our first TDM400 card in October 2004, and it sucked.  It was 
from a bad batch of cards.  After some tech support with Digium, we got 
another TDM400P, and it has been working well.

The TE410P is working well for the most part.  There have been a few 
instances of our PRI just going bye bye, and the card will only 
register a red alarm.  I haven't been able to determine properly if 
these are the fault of the card/driver, or the fault of our provider.  
I am suspecting the latter because I don't really do anything beyond 
restarts, and power cycles, and the problem suddenly fixes itself.

The hardware combination seems to work well for us, though.  Quality is 
fine.  There aren't any interrupt issues that I've seen.
