Is there any better Supermicro board for a dual E5 v4 set-up than the X10DRH-CLN4 for FreeNAS?

I already have the E5 Xeon v4 CPU's.

This is the list I'm looking at is https://www.supermicro.nl/products/motherboard/Xeon1333/#2011

* I also liked the X10DAC, because of thunderbolt, but that's more of a workstation motherboard.
* I haven't heard much about 3108 SAS, but I'm pretty sure it's not been tested that well with FreeNAS, that scares me. And sometimes it has cache to do it's own raid, so not just an HBA.
* All other motherboards in this list are Proprietary Twin, which might be hard to find a non-Supermicro case for.

TheSAA3108 is less than ideal, but should work, using the mrsas driver.
