Hi guys I'm new when it comes to using Freebsd but can you recommend
me a motherboard(s) that will support Freebsd 7.0? It will have at
least RAID 1 configuration with full driver support. I'm planning to
install Freebsd to a clone PC so that I can continue my progress/self
training. Thank you very much.
Most consumer motherboards will work.
However, with regards to "RAID 1 configuration", what are you planning
on using for RAID 1? A RAID controller, or something like gmirror(8)
which is software/OS-based RAID in FreeBSD? (Most people will strongly
recommend using software/OS-based RAID, for a lot of good reasons.)
I'm in the market for a decent motherboard also. Been monitoring
slickdeals lately - newegg seems to have specials every now and
then on the ASUS P5Q Pro. The reviews I've read seem pretty
positive on this board. Anyone with any experience with this
board?
