One other thing, the RAID card is a PCI express x1 but your board doesn't have
a slot for that, only a x16 slot. Maybe you need to change that order before it
ships or did I miss something?

Do these software based RAID cards actually increase performance? Like If I
had 3 drives in a RAID 0 would I really see a performance increase loading data
from the drives as opposed to have one SATA drive?

Very nice. That would cost £1000 here in the UK. I need to visit home in
Florida, get one of these, and bring it back as carry-on luggage...

With a little more help from Webster (thanks guy!) I came up with a kickin'
sub-$1K server from ewiz.com with 8 GB RAM and a quad-core Q6600 Intel CPU.
Ewiz.com has some great prices.

Post your req's here.
I have a couple systems I do testing for Xen and *did* some Hyper-v testing
with. Possibly I can suggest a config that I know works from experience that
fits your budget as I built my own rigs as well.

Related Q: a few weeks ago someone (Blackstone? Espinola? I don't remember)
posted a site that had really excellent prices on white-box servers.
(I need something inexpensive for home that I can use as a Hyper-V server.)
Anyone remember what that site was?
(And, BTW, it's a real failing for me - I don't really "do" hardware. So,
designing a server from the motherboard up isn't a skill I have. Webster helped
me a lot yesterday, but when I gave him all of my requirements, it was more
than I wanted to spend.)
Thanks!

The 2100 is on the 2003 HCL but I don't see it on the 2008.
http://www.windowsservercatalog.com/item.aspx?idItem=6c0eadca-361e-de5f-976a-c294349ab8d5&bCatID=1282
I would "imagine" that 2008 will install, but may not be supported.

Anyone have a clue whether newisys 2110-I motherboards are natively
recognized by server 2008?
Thanks.
