I'm pretty sure the AMD 780G/SB700 works with Opensolaris in AHCI mode. There may be a few 780G/SB600 boards, so make sure you check. I'm not sure how well the integrated video works. The chipset combined with a 45W CPU should have low power draw. The SB700 can handle up to 6 SATA ports. Be wary of the SB600 - There's a DMA issue with the controller when using more than 2GB memory. There are a lot of 780G boards available in all sorts of form factors from almost every manufacturer. > Also: what type of RAM to select toghether? (I would chose if good ECC, but > the rest?) 2GB or more of ECC should do it. I believe all the AMD CPUs support ECC, but you should verify this before buying. -B -- Brandon High [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The good is the enemy of the best." - Nietzsche _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
