I'm looking for an inexpensive server-esque board. I'm not looking for a s939 since price is an absolute concern. I figure I can do a s754 and get very good performance for < $300 for mobo ram and proccie.
So, Looking across newegg, the one with the most onboard HDD headers led me to this AOpen N250A-FR board linkage
Anyone have positive or negative things to say about Aopen or this model in particular? This is going to be a sandbox/fileserver/some encoding machine. Maximum hdd capabilities are a must, performance must be on-par with "reference" boards and no OC'ing or gaming is forseen (my spare vid-cards are 5600's and MX-400's
)
