hello,

i would like to get the nvidia 680i board for future use of SLI.
it seems there are a few models for that board, which one should i pick?
i saw tr model and t1?
and i was wondering if i can raid two 15k scsi 36GB seagate drives only with the board, meanning no additional controler for raid.

tnx,
david.

I'll answer the second question since thats the answer to which i know for sure:
No, you will need to purchase a separate controller for the SCSI drives.

See Pavel's response.... if you want to use SCSI drives, RAID or no RAID, you will need an add in card, that mobo does not natively support SCSI (I don't know if any mobos have native SCSI support).
