Sales, Combo Deals, etc. For example NewEgg had combo that saved me $25 bucks on the supermicro board plus cpu so decided to go with that mobo and save some money. -dpc

Well that changes things. Will look into other supermicro boards as well as i thought they were bound to the app.... yeesh what a rookie assumption to make. Thanks Johnm, dpc

Explain? Do you mean you can hit IPMI without the supermicro application (like Dell/Tyan does)? Does it use a specific port? -dpc

i could use a rack but money is tight for toys on toys. Can you tell us more about this "ghetto" ikea rack that looks mighty appealing to me? EDIt: Read other postings...

Good thought. I had not encountered issues with this before as I had not been using all the slots on the Norco so the load (if there ever was any) on the splitter was never high enough to cause issues. I will look into having three molex lines from the power supply. I hope my cables reach. -dpc

Originally purchased in April 2011 Reason for sale: Replacing with much much larger and stupidly expensive machine. No issues at all with this host just need to free up room for the large new box.

Surely you folks jest....?? 1. (typical) unRAID requires a USB stick to be installed on. Yes a vmdk can be created and its great idea. However not interested in creating a vmdk for each new release. As an additional determent the unRAID requires windows to run the prepackaged betas - the syslinux executable - at home I have only a mac and im ok with that - dont understand why we are stuck to binary blobs for windows for a linux OS. 2. unRAID licensing scheme appears to be based off USB stick info. Perhaps it works without the USB stick but I do not feel comfortable to invest into som
