I have 2x 300gb 15k U320 SCSI Hard drives (http://www.stuff-uk.net/?s=ST-HUS153030VL3800)

Can someone please tell me what kind of SCSI RAID card I will need to use these hard drives with my P35 mobo (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16813128059) in RAID 0?

I also intend to purchase more of these hard drives for a RAID 5 configuration. What will I need then?

 

Oh and also I'd prefer if the SCSI card allows the hard drives to realize their full potential (ie. I don't want the RAID card to be the bottleneck)... So what kind of specs should I be looking for?

 

Sorry I don't know much... thanks for the help

 

edit: oh and stupid question... Only one controller card is needed for all my hard drives, right?

How about something like this:

??

Is it compatible with my MoBo? Is it fast enough for my hard drives?
