Thanks for keeping the updates flowing. I am starting my build based on your setup. Are you still on a single NIC?

 Re: Gigabyte GA-870A-USB3 & AMD Phenom II X4 840 3.2 QCore
Can you tell me if the onboard SATA controller works. I don't have a nas and cannot afford one at this time. I am having a rough time finding a board.
Thanks

 Re: Gigabyte GA-870A-USB3 & AMD Phenom II X4 840 3.2 QCore
yea - actually you are a nice guy  - I really appreciate the help.. The board looks good (except for the 16gb limit). Just need to verify whether the controllers work out of the box or if I will need to hack a little. Thanks
