Unfortunately for me, Windows doesn't support ZFS... right now it's

Nope: FreeBSD doesn't have proper power management either.

How about we complain enough to shame somebody into adding power

Do you know what implications there are for using AHCI vs IDE modes?

You will need at least SNV_93 to use it in AHCI mode.
The northbridge gets quite hot, but that does not seem to be impairing
its performance. I have the M2A-VM with an AMD 64 BE-2400 (45W) and

My recommendation: buy a small, cheap 2.5 SATA hard drive (or 1.8 SSD) and
