Somewhat of an update....

I added one more 960 EVO M.2 500 GB and two 10TB Barracuda Pro's tp the build

I set up the M.2's in RAID 0 for the main drive, and the two 10TB Barracuda's in RAID 1 for data drives. Everything went smooth and it's all set up now... Just installing tons of software now! Check my out my sick kitchen test bench lol

I think setting up two m.2 in raid on mobo is not supported..

I thought is was kind of cool that the PSU came with some cable combs

Like the chrome tubing , think what Daz meant is that your 2 drives in raid 0 will saturate the bus and u not get the benefit of the speed double normally accosiated with raid 0. My 950 pro was always told not to raid as it wasn't worth it because of the limits of the bus.

Nice choice on PSU

Gotcha! - Here's before and after:

I think you can use only do raid zero and i wanted raid 1, which is possible only betwen certain ports.

Wow, impressive to get nearly double the speed with raid 0.

Ya your not far off from double, nice, guess they have improved the bus speed it seems ...Very nice .

Not much to update currently, just awaiting more parts, case, etc... I will be painting the rads and modifying the motherboard cladding shortly however. In the meantime:

I had these domed decals made by Stickers International to replace the EK logo/badges on the motherboard block and rads. They come in a set amount depending on size, hence the lol-quantity... I think they turned out great!
