And as of now, I have a add in PCI 4 port Rosewill RC 209 SATA RAID card that takes up a 3rd slot. Don't ask y I am using a add in NIC card, believe me, its a necessity. I must have atleast 2 PCI slots open for a NIC card & Sound Card. Then, after all of that and if that is my only option for a board, the slot layout is equally important to my mobo purchase decision. As it stands, the Asus P5Q Premium is the only Asus board I know that has this. Multiple onboard raid controllers would be fantastic if they were more abundant. Eventually I'd like to take all 3 of those storage drives which are the exact same drive and put them in a RAID-0 config and have that mirrored to by a single 1.5Tb drive or vice versa. The storage drive is then Mirrored or RAID-1 to 2 drives on an add in SATA RAID card in RAID-0. ![]() I have a single boot drive and a single storage drive. My situation is almost exactly what VLarry described. Why don't more boards have this! I have to revert to a add in card making choosing a mobo very difficult.
