It does seem that I'll be at a crossroads with having 3 SSDs on the board I selected since there are split controllers for the 6Gb SATA connections (knew this going in). Accidentally adding that extra SSD might have caused me a headache. I wonder how big of a difference I'd see moving the 3 x 64GB SSDs to the SATAII ports, then sticking my 2 x 1TB WD HDDs on the Intel SATAIII controller (even though they are only SATAII disks), with the optical drive on either the Marvell SATAIII or the last SATAII port. I've heard that the difference between SATAII and SATAIII is fairly miniscule at this point, but I don't know if that applied to RAID0 arrays with 3 SSDs
Hmph. Guess I'll be playing around with it for a while. If all else fails, down the road I suppose I'd just have to buy a dedicated minimum 4-port (well, okay, technically 3, but I like even numbers) RAID add-on card.
