Asus A8N-SLI Premium RAID

I currently own the aforementioned motherboard and have a RAID 0 with 2 x WD2500KS drives. I want to make it RAID 5 with 4 of these drives. The Asus website says that the NVRAID support RAID 0, 1 and 0+1, and the silicon image 3114R suppport all these and RAID 5. Unfortunatly it does not support NCQ. I really want NCQ to be enabled.

The nVidia website says the nForce 4SLI chipset supports Raid 5.

Has anyone used RAID 5 on this controller with this board?

thanks
 
On a 430 board, I could see RAID 5 as an option in the BIOS, but not in the Windows utility (for creation or conversion to). So check the options in the RAID BIOS.

(Write performance wasn't good, so I didn't use it after initial testing.)
 
Write performance is not that much of an issue. I'm using it as a workstation and a gaming rig.

I'll hook up all 4 drives and see if it gives me the option for RAID 5.
