I would run away from any such board :-( OK, so it works, but the on board nve doesn't and the RAID isn't as good as I hoped it might be :-( Also, given that nVidia don't seem willing to reveal the super-secret-squirrel specs for anything on the board I'm not sure it's ever going to work as well as some of the board from more enlightened manafacturers. I'm seriously contemplating changing my motherboard away from an Abit AN-8 Ultra for the above reasons. david
