Hi--
Noob here, just 2 posts...I've seen lots of folks using this MB and I am wondering if there are any similarly configured alternatives that use the Intel NIC vs the Realtek on this unit?
Basically I'm looking for low-power ITX, 4-6 SATA3 ports, Intel NIC, with support for 8GB RAM. I'd like to pair this with 4 1 or 2TB SATA3 drives, and use a PicoPSU 160:

Also: how does one determine if the power-on HD spin-up draw will exceed the capacity of this power supply? I'd like to use a smaller Pico PSU if possible.
Lastly: I've been experimenting with the 64bit 8.2BETA3 and it seems to have strange console output problems where the console does not scroll--console updates appear on one line at the bottom of the console. I have also verified this on my other ITX unit (the Intel Atom D2500).
Thanks much--
