Good lord!
That's a $400 mobo and CPUs are $400/ea (give or take a few bucks,
depending on where you shop).
My solution was cheaper and more upgrade-friendly. :)
Remind me again, how much do Areca cards cost?
$60 for mobo, $60 for cpu, $150 for memory, $530 for 8-port Areca card. :)
I was shooting for a socket-939 since I already had a spare 3800+ and
memory.
Something like this might be more interesting:

Yes, that's pretty tasty for an AM2.
2 of those
nice Supermicro controllers, for example, will fit fine.
I'm assuming you're referring to AOC-SAT2-MV8 (only 3Gb/s card listed).
I don't see those listed in the HCL as either "Supermicro" or "Marvell",
which is why they weren't even a consideration.
