Newegg
19 July 2012
  • Summary: 1) The board comes with jumpers that are very long. I guess intel thinks you are going to be moving jumpers around all the time.
  • Pros: It’s a good board once you get by the initial setup issues.

Great Borad

Newegg

  • Cons: None so far. Never had an issue with it. Runs headless and serves up movies and runs a few VM's.

James, Newegg
2 November 2009
  • Pros: 6 SATA ports: raid 0,1,10, & 5. ECC support. Good documentation. Easy install. All around a great, fast, entry-level server board for the price.
  • Cons: Memory support is limited. Originally purchased Kingston KVR1333D3D4R9SK2/8G, which was to spec, but ended up having to return for two Kingston KVR1333D3E9SK2/4GI kits...
