Ok i am trying to decide whether or not i go with onboard raid 5 or add the new PCI Express 9650SE raid card from 3-ware. i will be doing a 4 drive raid 5 with 500GB seagate drives.
the array will store all my data, video files, music, pictures, and other things. i would like performance and reliability. the motherboard to be used is the ABIT IN9 32X-MAX with the Nvidia 680I Chipset.
What do you think? should i spend the extra 300 Bucks for the nice raid card or just go onboard?
Also i will be using vista ultimate 64 bit and the drivers are in beta stage now.
