In Summary.

I've been very pleased with the result of the build. I love this drive caddy, it makes things so much easier.
The main thing I've needed to do is be a little patient with RAID. Not that it's not faster than single drive, or safer for that matter, just that RAID needs to do finish what it starts before you hammer it again.
Example: whilst installing am application (Picasa2) I got a BSOD and the RAID reported a failed drive on installation. RAID started to rebuild and I gave it a hour (which isn't nearly enough time!) before trying again. This time, another BSOD and again a RAID failure, this time a different drive! Needless to say, the RAID array had failed by now as it had lost two drives over a short space of time before the first rebuild had completed.
In the end I rebuild the RAID and reinstalled - this time, touch wood, I've had no BSOD at all!

Raid

Setting up the RAID 5 was pretty straight forward.
These four 320G drives gave almost 900Gb of capacity.

Spaghetti

It was looking OK until the IDE cable for the DVD drive was added, then things got a little messy ;)

Fiddly Bits

One nice touch on this motherboard are these little dongles that allow you to connect all the tiny connectors for the motherboard into a single plug that you can do outside of the case before slotting the plug into the motherboard in one go.

It's the biggest one yet!










So bit in fact, it takes up two slot spaces. Wave goodbye to one PCI slot!
