Before i press the buy button, the Asus P8H77-I is a good board with Intel controller for the Sata3 6g?

So far i'm really impressed with this board. I have it in a test box running WHS 2011 (non production machine) trying my level best to break it before I migrate my data. The six SATA ports are ideal for a server build, they all support hot swap, fantastic.

All my current drives are 3GB SATA so can't comment on 6GB performance but expect it will be rock solid.

These 2 go together ok and the Sata 3 6g controller is Intel?

Asus P8H77-I Intel H77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 MiniITX Motherboard

Samsung Green (MV-3V4G3D/US) 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz

Thanks
