interesting Hardware combination this is an Intel server board okay and this particular one is the s1200 KP and then I also have a matching Intel xon processor so this is an E3 1260l so that's a 2.4

I've really done too much of on my particular Channel but they do make motherboards it's also no secret that Intel makes some of the most reliable motherboards out there so if you were going to build something like a very small form factor uh server machine whether it's for home use or SMB use you're going to throw it in a closet somewhere and basically forget about it I don't see a reason why you wouldn't want to use a configuration like this another possible application based on the motherboard itself which I'll actually here I'll get into that in a minute let's look at the accessories would be something like a uh like a Nas or a storage server if you don't want to use a pre-boxed solution you want to use a custom software or something like that you could use a product like this so in terms of included accessories there's not a whole lot there's an IO Shield there are two SATA cables although I got to say they feel pretty darn high quality for uh included SATA cables nice we've got

sure we've got the Intel server board quick reference which shows you how to install your stuff on the thing and finally we have a driver disc which you shouldn't use you should download the latest off the Intel website so now let's have a look at the board itself LGA 1155 socket so you're going to want to use a Zeon on this particular board um which is not really that different from a desktop uh Core I5 or core i7 processor other than the additional validation that a Zeon chip goes through so when you buy server grade components you are paying for reliability so that's what it brings to the table so you've got your Zeon socket here you've got a PCI e6x slot here which means you can use this for almost any number of things because that 16x slot gives you the potential to put a raid card in here it gives you the potential to put a very Advanced network card in here or whatever else that you would want to do in terms of included RAM support we've got dual DDR3 dim slots so those are supporting dual Channel memory and you can put up to 16 gigs in here so that's not bad considering the ITX form factor we've got a 24 pin power as well as four pin power for the CPU directly you can see the CPU vrm circuitry is right here as well as the CPU fan header and an oh sorry CPU fan header and an additional fan header we've also got um sorry we've got four SATA ports so two of them are SATA 36 gbit per second and two of them are s to 3 gbit per second we've got front USB right here so that's USB 2 and then we've got our front panel connectors over here so everything's all laid out in a pretty straightforward fashion I would definitely recommend using an air cooling Solution on this board that has a down-draft cooler so that you make sure you're cooling these vrm components you can see what Intel's done is they've actually stood these components on up with metal sinks on them in order to make sure that they get adequate cooling as opposed to laying them down directly on

the ITX Server Motherboard and I'll actually be looking at using this in an upcoming NC Tech tips we're going to have a look at Windows Home Server with a fractal design Define sorry not Define array
