Also Has IPMI, I have no affiliation with the seller. But this is where I got my X9 Freenas From.
Also the packaging was pretty nice Figured I would help others out to find a 24Bay Nas.
Some time for close to the same price he has them with sled's.
I looked for about 3 weeks for the cheapest 24 to 36bay.

$364.99 For a X9 Motherboard with no sleds
