I have socket 478 Aopen XCube running CCTV around my property using gentoo and zoneminder. I'm planning to replace it with something quieter, smaller and less power hungry, and my choice will be D510 mobo with passive heatsink. I tried to find D510 motherboard with PCI slot (required because of CCTV capture card) and wifi but can't find such beast, so I think i'lll just settle for something simple, like Asus AT5NM10-I.
I would like to put it in a case smaller than my current "small form factor" - Aopen Xcube but it has to fullfill certain requirements:
- It has to have space for full height PCI card, I'm not too fussed if it's via raiser card, in fact raiser card might even be more convenient.
- It has to accommodate at least full size 3.5" hard drive with PCI card in - it doesn't have to have CD/DVD, but 2Tb regular HDD is a must
- It should be relatively cheap, doesn't have to be pretty but shouldn't cost arm and leg
