What about the Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe motherboard? It has 7 SATA ports, supports ECC memory, socket AM2, generally looks very attractive for my home storage server. Except that it, and the nvidia nForce 570-SLI it's built on, don't seem to be on the HCL. I'm hoping that's just "yet", not reported yet. Anybody run Solaris on it? Or at least on any nForce 570-SLI board? Would you risk buying it to find out yourself?
I've heard rumors of ZFS in one of the more obscure Linuxes, perhaps Ubuntu; I suppose that could be a backup plan if I try and Solaris doesn't work. I have the general feeling that Linux runs on anything I can buy today, pretty much, since I've been using it for over a decade and am somewhat plugged into the community. I don't yet have the impression that Solaris runs on most anything, possibly after tracking down a few drivers. Does it, really? Should I be not worrying about this so much? -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/> _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
