Solaris and Supermicro x10sl7 boards

I am looking at building a Solaris ZFS machine to play around with, but was having some trouble figuring out supported hardware. I was thinking about the SuperMicro X10sl7 (product page, X10sl7 review). But after looking at the Supermicro OS compatibility list and the
Solaris compatibility list it looks like it is not supported.

Is that true? I am not as familiar with the Solaris compatibility lists so I don’t know if the list is complete in terms of items being covered. From searching online I have found others that seem to have had Supermicro boards supported under Solaris that are not on Supermicro’s list for Solaris support.

Thanks. (Let me know if this should be posted to another thread.)

Oracle really isn't interested in licensing and\or support Solaris on hardware they don't sell. I wouldn't assume that just because it's not on the HCL from Oracle that it won't work. Just buy one of the Intel boards on the list and you won't have to worry about it.

Or... Check eBay for Sun\Oracle hardware. You can get some great stuff there that's no longer suitable for enterprise use but it'll sure rock your socks at home.

Thanks. I will look at some of the solaris machines on eBay. They look pretty promising.
