I have the opportunity to purchase a Super Micro Computer X9SRH-7TF motherboard for around $75.00. My understanding is the on-board LSI 2308 can be flashed to IT mode. Mentioned in the manual here https://www.supermicro.com/manuals/other/LSI_HostRAID_2308.pdf Also the board has integrated 10GBE nics via the Intel x540 chipset but I am not sure if there is support for these in FreeNAS.
I was thinking of using it for a FreeNAS build, I was hoping to get some feedback on what people think.
The rest of the build would include:

Thanks in advance for your input.
