I looking to building my first NAS server and require help in choosing a Mini-ITX Motherboard.
I would like to buy a motherboard which has a built in CPU.
The following ASUS page has 7 boards listed, and I am lost to how to choose the right board:
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_CPU_on_Board
I note someone has mentioned the E35M1-I board on the forum, elsewhere I have noticed the C60M1-I board. Then there are other types of boards listed on the above link.
I note that the boards mention the on the storage specification:
6 x SATA 6Gb/s port(s), white
OR
6 x SATA 6Gb/s port(s), gray
Is there a difference between gray and white?
Please help recommend a board....
I also not there is a wi-fi board available on the link above (Deluxe versions). Is this a good option to have, as I am thinking of building a wi-fi NAS unit...
I look forward to your help / recommendations.
Thank you.
