* Lots of potential for storage. 28 PCIe lanes is huge at this price point. * IPMI is so convenient for running a headless system. * Fits plenty of potential in a small form factor. 4 built in SATA ports plus 2 M.2 sockets. 7 fan headers. M.2 doesn't compete with PCIe for lanes. All awesome.

This motherboard was a upgrade from a Supermicro X11SAE-M motherboard that I use in a TrueNAS Scale server at home. I was able to use a i7-14700K processor and transfer my boot drive and eight hard drives to this system easily. The included IPMI is a welcome feature as it allows me to remotely manage the CLI of the server and even remotely reboot or power up/down the system. ECC memory support was absolutely essential.

- below $350 this is a great option to pack huge amount of power into a small box - can serve 48 or 64 core EPYC - slimSAS connectors allow you to add extra devices (e.g. additional drives, I actually use an EDSFF SSD with adapters) - fits e.g. 2U Dynatron coolers but also chunky ones like the ID-Cooling SE-207-TRX

It was easy to work and perfect for a custom NAS.

Everything works, The IPMI web interface is fast and easy.
