Thank you. I have seen the ASM1166 mentioned before as part of such a solution, but the other suggestions were new to me.

Can you also confirm to me, have I got it right that (some/all? of) the N100 boards has everything included regarding CPU, GPU and RAM, while most other mini-ITX boards come without those? Or did I get that wrong? Sorry for bothering you, but it’s all still a bit confusing to me, and I have an empty Jonsbo N3 case, and some 22TB drives that are longing to move into their house.

Do you happen to know about a decent solution for 8 SATA ports on a mini-ITX board?
