Hi guys,

I have 2xWD Black Series 750Gb drives in RAID0 on an Intel ICH9R RAID controller on my IP35 Pro. Everything is working nicely.

I am going to order a new board this week, probably an MSI P67-GD65. I suspect the best controller on this board is the 6Gb/S Marvell 9128 RAID controller.

I've never migrated a RAID Array to a new controller before. Is this even possible, or should I be prepared to have to recreate the array from scratch? I've backed up all my important data but obviously it would be far easier if I could simply reformat the Windows partition and off we go.

Is the Marvell 9128 the best controller to use, or should I use the 3Gb/S Intel controller?

Thanks!
