Pros: 22 SATA III Ports!

Cons: Only 2 things and I'm sure I can get them worked out. It takes FOREVER to post. It powers to the BIOS, loads the Intel controller and then goes back to the BIOS and then loads the LSI controller, then boots to the OS. Also the 1211 LAN is flaky, saying that the cable is unplugged out of the blue, this caused my to abandon teaming them.

Overall Review: Overall a magnificent board. I have 4 SSD's in RAID 0 for my boot and it is blazingly fast. I plan on adding as I go along. I will see that 8Gbps throughput on the LSI eventually.
