I have a need for a storage server and am thinking of using Frost in sig for it. The MB does not have pci-x slots, only PCI. Are there decent raid controllers for this need, or should I upgrade the MB for this server? I don't need to do any transcoding as I have plans to build an HTPC with plenty of power. I just need massive storage for HD content on the network. I'd prefer to use Frost so that I don't have to buy a new system because I'm already buying a bunch of other stuff.
Edit: I'm looking at this card. Unfortunately it only supports 4x sataII ports. I'd prefer to have 8 and it seems you need pci-x for that. New mb it is. Now to modify that case.
