Hi guys. I would like to build a new raid 5 inside my pc. Problem is, my motherboard is full, Im already using all 10 SATAs for system and data raids (2 and 6 discs) and other stuff... So my idea is to get a new PCI express-something card to get additional 4 SATAs. Im already using Intel Rapid Storage so according to the specification http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/CS-020644.htm I need something with these Intel controller hubs to be able to have everything in one application. I have tried to find something from Intel, but all the time I´m ending in too expensive segment for big servers..May be I´m missing something important about it or can somebody point me to a card up to 250$?
I´m planning to add 4x 4 TB HDD probably something like green Western Digital.
My motherboard is GA-x58a-ud3r rev 2.0

As I plan to use this even in future
