So Gigabyte has a new board coming out, known as the MA10-ST0. It's a monster!
Here's a quick run down of the hardware specs:
The good news is, according to this article, the board does work with FreeNAS 11. There is however currently no support for the 10Gb/s SFP+ ports but I imagine that will be addressed in the not too distant future.
This board will make for a few interesting builds (and not just for FreeNAS, maybe a high end firewall?), I can't help but think this board will be very expensive.

- Intel® Atom™ C3958 SoC
- 32GB eMMC flash memory (USB drives are so 2016)
- Dual Channel RDIMM/ECC UDIMM DDR4, 4 x DIMMs (up to 512GB RAM!)
- 2 x 10Gb/s SFP+ and 2 x 1Gb/s LAN ports
- 4 x Mini-SAS up to 16 x SATA 6Gb/s ports
