Hi there!

I'm in a bit of a hurry, and searching here and elsewhere hasn't done me any good, so I'm hoping someone here can lend a helping hand. :)

I'm looking for a motherboard with two (or more) decent/good RAID controllers already built into the system. Preferably a not too expensive one, Intel or AMD socket doesn't really matter. The more built-in controllers, the more advanced settings the controllers have, and the more common the motherboard is, the better.

Thanks in advance whilst I keep hopelessly searching...

Need more info that that. What socket are you looking for?

I know that my EX58-DS4 has the ICH10R raid as well as a Gigabyte solution.

Preferrably 775 or AM2+.

Great, and are they any good?

If there is a board that has more than two controllers built in, and not too expensive, that'd be ideal. But boards with only two, and with good performance and plenty of options, work fine too.

Thanks again!

How do you need it setup exactly? Most higher-end boards end up with 6 SATA ports through ICH__R and then 2-4 more based on a JMicron controller.
