Looking to replace my old server which is celeron based with an atom based machine.

This fits the bill, but there are a couple of things I need to work out!

ATOM Based barebones

Does anyone know if this has gigabit network capability?

Would the case house 5 hard drives? (There is no need for a DVD drive) ie 1 OS and 4 as storage (ie the samsung green 2TB drives)

I appreciate, this only has 2 sata ports.... would I be fine to use a PCI sata card? If the MB doesnt have gigabit, is there 2 PCI slots that I could add a SATA card and Gigabit card?

Ta muchly for any help
 
From what I can tell from 4 minutes of googling the mobo is a Foxconn 6627MA-RS2H which has 2 PCI ports and a PCIe x1 and x16.

Cant guarantee that is the exact motherboard, might be worth ringing OCUK and just asking them to confirm what mobo is used.

Cheers, though that seems to be a Socket 775 board... this one is an Atom!

I had already looked on the Foxconn site and could only see one atom board, which didnt sound like it was the one.... but as you say, without the specifics being listed, its just guess work!

Reading the specs, it does only have 1 PCI slot.. so unless it has onboard gigabit, its not the one for me.

I'm still pondering with this. I can see it listed a ready built PC with hard drive and Ram.

The ram is shown as Kingston 1GB DDR2 667MHz ... but cant see it listed on the site to buy.

Still ringing.... and still engaged!
