Great! I wonder, how is it setup? All harddrives to the mobo or to the SATA
card? The OS drives to the mobo? etc? etc?

This system consists of 8 drives. 3 are for the OS (in a mirrored
configuration) and the other 5 are strictly for storage. The MB actually has
support for 6 SATA devices on
I just thought that I'd post a follow up in this thread... I received this
hardware the other day and got snv_b85 installed on it. Everything works great!
I didn't test the audio but all other on-board components work as they should.
Thanks for your help!

It isn't.
I'd like to use as much as I want. If I want to use 64GB of RAM, then so be
it.
I have no problems on Windows using as much RAM as I want.
Right, and you shouldn't have any problems using Solaris/OpenSolaris
Thanks for disagreeing, we need here, both successes and failures, so we can
build boxes that WORK. You used an Intel CPU. I used AMD. You used an Asus m/b
I used MSI. Hopefully, the kernel developers are looking at our results.
Can you confirm you ARE using the xVM kernel?

That's highly unlikely,
I just built a zfs storage box, and i have to disagree with beardal, zfs
caching mechanisms will happily use as much memory as it can get.
My config:
Asus P5M2-SAS (Intel 3000 northbridge + ICH7 southbridge) integrated lsi 1068

I'm currently in the process of obtaining new hardware for a ZFS NAS built on
OpenSolaris. Thus far I have the following list of hardware picked out -
ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe AM2 NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI MCP Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ Brisbane 2.3GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Processor
Too much memory!
My experience thus far with a MSI Platinum mainboard is, with the xVM kernel
you will need to trim down the memory with:
eeprom physmem=60
This will leave you with just over 2Gb of your 4Gb for user processes.
A bit poor, but, we wait for the driver developers to

Does the board have a 64-bit PCI-X slot?

It does not. I have read favorable reviews about running the
AOC-SAT2-MV8 in a 32-bit slot however. I realize that I will not get
maximum performance by doing this but
