I currently have 2 of these MB's running as servers for my home. One has been in service for over a year nonstop and has not skipped a beat yet. I run RedHat Linux 9 on one and Fedora 10 on the other. Both versions of Linux think that there are 4 CPU's on their MB and divide the work load between the CPU's. Rarely are all 4 processors working: generally they are running at 0 to 10% utilization which gives you a lot of processing power.
The only difficulty with these MB's is their size. You will definitely need a PC case that can handle an eATX motherboard. Other than the MB's size, you will need an EPS PSU such as a Coolmax model M-500B (which I am using) and an EPS power cable extender to get the 8 pin power connector to the MB.
The AIC79XXX SCSI onboard Bios handles RAID 1 easily (RedHat Linux 9 does not support the AIC79XXX for boot; but, Fedora 10 does). You will need to turn on HostRAID in the SCSI BIOS to get SCSI RAID functionality.
There is not a Firewire header present on the MB so you will have to buy a Firewire addin card to get one, if you need it.
