a bonus question  if i start with the 3 disk version of unRAID and i want to put a 4th disk in my server, do i then need to set everything up again, or do i just put in the registration key i buy and then i can keep going ?

Many people use the Supermicro X7SPA for an unRAID Server.

It is choosy about ram so use recommended ram.

 

The boards you have listed have not been proven to work with unRAID yet.

However nothing is alarming about them to say they would not work with unRAID.

I'll end up getting the ASROCK board to see how it fares as an unRAID server and/or XBMC Media PC.

I have the ASROCK nettop and it serves well for XBMC.

Just put the registration key file on the flash drive, reboot, and keep on going.  No need to set up everything again.

X7SPA is difficult to get hold of in the UK,  possibly continental Europe too.

Gigabyte GA-D510UD works well for me.  I expect that the D525 version would also work (uses DDR3 instead of DDR2 memory).  All four SATA ports on the board work well.  There's only a PCI slot for expansion (no PCI-e), but with an Atom CPU that's not a big issue for me.  I use motherboard ports for the parity and cache drives.  My system with 7 WD green drives idles at about 36 watts into the power supply.
