Looks OK. As to small, there are smaller. You can take a soldering iron and heat one side and use the solder iron to lift the part up off the board. Takes about 30 seconds if you have done it before.
If not, you may want to find someone that has done it before.

Can you review the image attached and confirm this is what I should do? Please refer to highlights in bright green. Any suggestions on unsoldering R444? Looks impossibly microscopic to remove or even unsolder without doing damage to the contiguous components.

All you have to do is solder a wire into those holes to change the setting. For SATA you just need to install one wire in J3 position 1-2 and remove R444. The lines in read show the default which is set by the resistors onboard.

Is there a way to boot from an external USB hard drive? or 2. Can someone provide more detail directions on switching boot sequence to boot directly from eSATA? The reference manual is very vague on this. You need to unsolder and resolder resistors to act as jumpers? There are perforated holes in the circuit board where the resistors and jumpers are supposed to be. Are the resistors supplied? Are they on the board? If so where are they? What are their values in Ohms? How are the perforations on the board numbered 1-3 from left to right or right to left? This needs to be much more detailed. Why would you design a board that make switching the boot sequence so difficult? How about just putting in some removable jumpers! Any detailed help and direction would be appreciated.
