    The low profile seem nice to me.
    But i don't know about the quad one for sure RAID might have enough in X8, but for around 50 to 100 euro more depending on quality, you can have a card cabled in X16...

    500 eur seems pricey. Isn't it just a raid controller?

    For that amount of money, I'd expect a full x16 slot so each drive can get full bandwidth.

    The fact it's bootable is good. The cost less so, I'm sure there are more cost-effective solutions.

    Sadly it doesn't work like that, it depend on the raid controler...
    But i agree that if the controler can use a x16 lane bandwith, it may more exploit the SSD at their full potential.
    And it's not expensive BTW
