This motherboard seems confused.

http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/ATOM/X9/X9SBAA-F.cfm

I'm looking for an ecc capable mini-itx motherboard with a low power CPU with at least 4 sata ports. This mobo seemed to fit the bill great till I noticed that it takes laptop memory. The description is inconsistent, saying it takes 204pin in one place and 240 in another. The picture seems to indicate 204pin. Yet does 204pin ddr3 ecc memory even exist? WTF?

Any other suggestions? This is for a low powered NAS. I love that my current atom build idles at ~20 watts, but it only has 2 sata ports.
 
You can try the Intel S120KPR(MB)+Pentium G2120(CPU) combo, is capable of ECC and has 4 SATA on MB; I've done some power measurements, posted here; the idle power is pretty good. Price-wise the combo should be close to the atom board.
 
Zolishoru, that looks just like what I'm looking for. I'm having trouble finding that motherboard though. Did you get the model number correct? Googling only returns this thread and the one you linked.
