... OEMs and system builders as well. It is in the area of features that the MSI K7T266 Pro2 really shines. First, MSI opted to go with a Promise chipset in order facilitate the board with IDE RAID capabilities. This is the standard chipset being used by most motherboard manufacturers for this option.
