Got to thinking the other day about getting an ssd (again!)...

My motherboard has onboard sata III with the marvel chipset... so I started thinking it would make sense to get a non-intel controlled ssd.

Then I wondered if there was an intel based controller card.

I think I'd probably go Elmcrest (intel + non-intel controller) but for the current price...
 
The P67 supports SATA-III on the chipset but for two ports only, see here.

USB 3.0 on the other hand is handled outside of the chipset (only USB 2.0 on P67).
