Ok, thanks, I guess I missed that note.

I may have found a bug today, or perhaps I'm doing something wrong but I've done this before in 5.x and it worked fine. I upgraded a 750gb disk to a 2tb disk last night. I precleared the disk beforehand. Added it to the array and it began to rebuild. All the data from the old disk is there and accessible but the disk did not expand to reflect the bigger size. It knows it's a 2tb disk but it's still limited to 750gb. Curious if it was just an error in the gui, I tried copying enough data to take it over 750gb via the disk share and it says there is not enough space. It seems that the auto expansion did not take place. I've attached a screen shot. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to expand the disk manually now? If it's a bug, do you need any other info from my system?

Hey, have you got this all setup yet? I haven't been on here in a little while...just upgraded mine tonight to RC11 and it seems to be much quicker vs RC10. I haven't installed any extra cards yet (so far just a simple 5 disk setup) so I can't say first hand it will work but the manual says it will. I agree, it's a little overkill for unraid but I'm hoping that spending a few extra bucks will keep things running worry free for a long time. I just went to the ASUS site and I see they have a Gen3 R2.0 version of this board that is different again. Not sure which one you picked up, but I have the R2.0. Anyway, that issue I mentioned where it wouldn't automatically boot from usb on a reboot was fixed when I updated the bios to 1302 so if you have that issue, I would look there first.

I'm just finishing building my first unRAID setup and bought the Asus Sabertooth 990fx R2.0 for it's quality and in the hopes it will run for a long time worry free. http://www.asus.com/Motherboard/SABERTOOTH_990FX/ It's socket AM3+ but it will run the pcix slots at 16x,8x,8x according to the manual. I haven't added any extra cards so I can't speak to that. The only quirk with it is that it won't automatically boot off the usb, when I've rebooted, it goes straight into the bios and I have to hit the enter key on the usb stick and away it goes. I'm sure it's just a setting in the bios somewhere but I haven't had a chance to go digging for it yet.
