if you have the extra hundred, sure by all means, however, the 9211 is a helluva solution. i can hardly guide you in this though, i think it depends on the amount of devices. if it is two only, then you will be far better served with 9211. i dont know i havge yet to come to any concrete conclusions yet as i simply have not had the time to finish playing. i can tell you this, there is a negligible difference in game load times between the two. they are both so fast it really doesnt matter, ya see? unless you are going for uber setup with tons of devices 9211 will be fine. however, be aware of its limitations with only raid 0 and one. also if you are using intels you will maybe need cache because of the write issues with the intels. Tiltevros can fill you in more on that as he is testing with intels.
