I am planning on upgrading my NAS to a new motherboard sometime in the next few months. I have almost everything ready and just need to order the parts once I have a bit more money, but there is one thing I am still unsure of. The local IP of my server (192.168.0.XXX) is used to reference my Cloudflare tunnel and a bunch of my docker apps use it, like plex. I have a cox gateway router (not my decision) and want to know how I could set the local ip of the new machine to the old machine's ip, so I don't have to change all my network settings for everything that uses the old address. What would be the best way to do this? Is there a way to set a static local up in Unraid settings? Or would it be best to access the admin portal of the router after transferring the usb and all the drives?

Thanks! Just checked out the ASUS board and it looks like a good option. Main downside is that the ipmi is on a seperate card, but it comes with one. And it could save me around $50-150 depending on where I could get the super micro board. Also, suggesting the chipset was great for finding more boards I can look through as well.

I currently run a server on a small prebuilt NAD which I put Unraid on. However, I am running out of space and it only came with two drive bays. My plan is to build a new server to transfer the Unraid onto that I can then plug in more Drives, which I already have. However, while I have found a cpu, I'm trying to find a motherboard that won't break the bank. CPU: i7-14700K Server Applications: Plex/Jellyfin Nextcloud Calibre PSNetsvr PC Backups (Plan on keep this on the old NAS pre-built) I wanted to buy something that would last a while and would be able to utilize a graphics card(for VMs and AI model testing) and an HBA card (for adding more drives. I do a lot of video editing and projects that eat up space for long term storage. My main goal is to get something that can act as my main server for the next 8-10 years. The main requirements are that it fit the Intel LGA 1700 socket, so I can use a cpu with intel's good video encoding and that it be compatible with ECC memory. Additional requirements are at least two Pcei lanes, x8 for LBA and x16 for GPU. I found the motherboard below which has IPMI as an extra bonus but wanted to see if anyone knew of something better and/or cheaper.
