    Hi Drashek Here: My Arm Caught In .....Aghhh,SQ Waves.

    Two controlers has been upper quality mainboard for while, cheapos use mere 4 sata slots & One sata controllerontroller off southbridge, yet for those wanting more with less, often few more with independent, persumably better quality controller, are offerred.

    R.A.I.D. on seems way to speedup slower southbridge, it has ssooo much to do, yet it costa thang.

    with Faster & Faster Hardware, Faster independent Controller (s), might be answer.

    DFI has made 12 Sata Mains & thats Lot.

    AMD64 != x64

    To alleviate confusion, remember this:

    - IA64 = Itanium (Intel)

    - AMD64 (AMD invented this version of 64-bit technology) ~ EM64T (Intel's version [copied])

    - AMD64 and EM64T is commonly known as x86-64

    - x64 makes me think of IA64, which is completely different from AMD64

    Thanks!
