Hi Christopher, I like your thinking...
Both the Jetway NF96FL-525 and NF99FL-525 boards are production "Extended Life Cycle" so they should be around for awhile. Both are 0ºC ~ 60ºC Operating Temp rated. If you only need two ethernet ports, the NF99FL-525 comes with 2 Intel PCI-e NIC's without needing the daughterboard. If you need more than two ethernet ports, the NF96FL-525 + 3x Intel daughterboard provides 4 NIC's (1 PCI-e and 3 PCI). The NF96FL-525 has onboard power, the NF99FL-525 uses ATX power. Choose the case accordingly.
