So does anyone know any nForce2 boards with the SPP and MCP-T chipset will have either ATA RAID or SATA RAID?

The Asus board is rumoured to have an 3rd party s-ata RAID chip onboard.
Blame nVidia though, they want boardmakers to keep the price as low as possible. Even Asus doesn't escape this rule, only their deluxe nforce board has all the extra goodies.

The upcoming MSI board with nForce2 is supposed to have RAID...don't know if its S-ATA RAID...Abit just posted their specs on the site...no RAID on their boards too...which kinda sucks balls...
