Change motherboard

[Christopher Joyson]

Hi
I am changing over to an Asrock C2750D4i after reading Cyberjocks recommendations anf belicing thus was the cheapest option.

Will this simply be a matter of swopping all my other hardware and usb drive over and switching on, my current system does not have ecc ram and is an Asus board.

I am assuming that the operating sytem will just recognise my exiating hard drives etc and boot up as normal.
Am I right or should I do a clean boot, I do have jails for sonarr, couchpotato, sqbnzbd and transmission.

Just move all the drives over and that's it. You may have to reconfigure your network interfaces, though.

Thanks I cant wait to try it and then use my old motherboard for windows.

How would i take best advantage of the three ethernet ports?

You don't have three.

One of them is, only for IPMI. The other two are available to the OS. It only makes sense to use one in 99% of cases. @DrKK does have a guide to set them up in a failover solution, if you're interested.

For your convenience, sir.
