[OpenIndiana-discuss] Another [OT] Hardware Post

[WK]

Yes, I noticed a lot of Asus boards support ECC, and I have started using Asus boards. No remote management capability on them, but for my application, I don't need it.

Another thread on this liast reported some problems with Asus boards and SAS/SATA HBAs. In a week or so I will receive a SuperMicro HBA, and learn for myself if there is a problem.

As for RAM, I get mine from Newegg. Here's a 4GB stick for $61

However, I don't know if that would be available to you or it would be a problem to import.

At least that's the way they are in my country. I'm having difficulties on finding Unbuffered ECC RAM, since usually consumer level boards and AMD CPU (not Opteron) only support Unbuffered ones, not the Registered ones.
