Like the previous reviewer said, it's got a Xeon in it.Ģ. Also planning on getting a SAS cable and some 2.5 plastic trays to hold them in there will-nilly. No USB 3.0! planning on getting a pci adapter for that. Mobo has an internal USB connector (thus total of 7, 2 front, 4 back, 1 internal). I had to disconnect everything and flash the bios a few times to get it to power up. Almost RMA'd it since on first start I just got yellow blinking error lights and continuous power-up and power-downs. I dropped a 1GB 3 port video card in and it worked fine. (I believe non-ECC memory will NOT work). Also picked up some 40-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Server Memory from newegg too. Also I bought a C2G 32185 USB to PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse Adapter since it has no PS2 connections. I bought a SYBA SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adapter since it has no onboard audio. Overall Review: I am using this as a dual bootable server/workstation. 1 optical drive tray (could be turned into 2 or 4-2.5 trays with a converter. SAS controller for up to 4 SAS drives, 2 SATA II hubs, great fan ventilation, etcĬons: no racks for storage unless you want to spend $60 on the carrier.
