Hi!
Ok. So what about this?
http://de.asus.com/products.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=1178&l1=3&l2=11&l3=307
Has anybody been using it?
With what success?
Can anybody use the embedded RAID controller to make a HW RAID 1
with two SATA disks?
Is the NIC supported and working well?
Again, I couldn't find any of its chipsets in the 6.3 supported
HW list, so that's why I ask the list.
But in this case I'm a bit muc more confident that FreeBSD 6.3
can run on this HW
It's a Asus P5B, with intel P965 / ICH8 chipset
With that MB I would like to build a small FreeBSD 6.3 home server with:
- 1 cpu Intel CORE2DUO E4600
- 2 GB DDR2-RAM Patriot DDR2 2GB Kit, PC6400
- 2 sata drives (HW RAID 1)
Any comment/hint welcome.
Thank you.
Best regards.

So, I thought to ask the list for comments.
http://www.gigabyte.de/Products/Motherboard/Products_Spec.aspx?ClassValue=Motherboard&ProductID=2613&ProductName=GA-73PVM-S2H
It's a GigaByte GA-73PVM-S2H
What I'm worring about is expecially the sata disk controller:
GeForce 7100/nForce 630i chipset
and the network interface:
RTL 8211B chip
I would avoid Nvidia chipsets. For Athlon processors, I've had the best
results with motherboards with a AMD or VIA chipset. For Intel processors,
VIA or intel chipsets are fine.
