Hello,
I have a Asus Sabertooth x58 and from the numerous forums I have read, including on this site, the Marvell built in RAID controller is garbage. Recently I have tried to go to RAID 0 and sometimes the drive doesn't load and it is as if the devices connected to those SATA ports don't exist, which from what I have read is common.
So my question is: if I were to buy a PCIEx1 RAID controller does it usually have the drivers in it? Like would it automatically work if I connect my drives to it? Or would I normally had to install from disk?
Could anyone recommend one they have used in the past and why?
