Subject: What hardware for RAID5? (PCIe controller or fast onboard)

I want to upgrade server hardware here, currently I have 5 Samsungs (sATA II) 
sitting on the onboard controller of an Asus K8N-E Socket754 board.
I guess the controller chips are both connected via PCI hence performance 
isn't really hot.

Basically I need either a board with at least 6x sATA-II attached via PCIe or 
a "dumb" PCIe 4x or 8x controller card.

Any recommendations?

Dex
