i just installed new freenas on my supermicro here are the hardware info:

CPU 2 X E5- 2640v2 CPU's
RAM 64GB ecc
BOOT - SATADIMM - VIKING TECHNOLOGY SATADIMM 100GB
STORAGE 8x800gb SSD sas 6
Controller AOC-S2308L-L8e

As far as I knew other than PICMG ( which is not available in my country ) there was only one other option, and it was to connect the extender to an old mainboard without CPU/RAM etc.
