Hi Scott, Actually I would recommend Intel DH67GD over Intel DH67CF as it has 2 additional RAM slots and 1 additional SATA ports. I'm still waiting for my replacement board because of the Sandy Bridge motherboard chipset bug. :( Oh, and you have to plug a compatible NIC since e1000e driver need

Wow thanks for all the replies. The DH67CF looks perfect. A few more silly questions though, if I do a memory test before installing am I right to use this considering it's non-ecc? I'd still be backing my important data up to cd once a month. Second question is about installing, is it consider

Hi Scott & Deano, You can use the Intel DH67CF motherboard. Everything is detected and works well for file server usage. ~ Ken Mays --- On Tue, 3/8/11, Deano wrote: > From: Deano > Subject: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Building a machine > To: "'Discussion list for OpenIndiana'" > Date: Tue

Hi, ATOM wont support ECC memory, so It wont make a mission critical storage device, but if you are storing movies, probability you will never notice a memory corruption problem. The data will be many times safer than in a regular file system, but wont be as safe as in a server using ECC memory.
