Just realised my first problem I need a board with at least 2 Sata 3 connectors and 4 Sata 2.

Anyone got any suggestions for a board with that?
 
The Gigabyte board only has four SATA ports (2XIII and 2XII) hopefully thats enough for you.


Theres nothing else to suggest then, its only five parts.

You've changed the board and I hope the PSU to the modular version, the RAM is on offer today only, so theres nothing left but to order.
 
I am about to order but need help. I need to change PSU I need a PSU to be able to feed upto 5 sata hdds and 1 dvd drive/blue ray drive and also needs to be modular
