Thanks everybody. This is an easy decicion, seeing that opinions don't vary at all. One more question though: This mobo has 2 free SATA connections. If I get 2 identical disks, could I set them up as striped RAID without a dedicated controller, and could I expect a performance boost with a pretty low-end motherboard (I think it's a 2800MHz Sempron)?

Thanks,
