Hi, I was just wondering if anyone can post what motherboard they are using with the onboard sata controller or PCI-e SATA Controller that is working with FreeNas 8.0. Having trouble with my motherboard Foxconn A7GM-S and FreeNas detecting my hard drives.....Thanks

It's the SB700 chipset used by the A7GM-S - it's not (currently?) compatible with FreeNAS8. This chipset works a treat with FreeNAS 0.7.2 in which case my advice would be to stick with FreeNAS 0.7.2 and wait until support is fixed (maybe someone should open a ticket - HP N36L servers are quite popular and also use this chipset), or as you appear to be already doing switch to a different motherboard.

Thanks Milhouse, I did just try FreeNas 0.7 Stable and it did work for me. I think I will play around with this and then upgrade later. Thanks for the info again.
