I was looking for a new motherboard with a PCI Express slot and found this one:

Asus A8S-X Socket 939 Motherboard

Has anyone used this or has anyone heard of any problems running NAS Lite on it?

Thanks for your help.

check the chipsets used on that board to see if they are listed in the hardware ref. If they are, you have yourself a naslite board.

What are you putting in the PCI-E slot? NASLite does not yet support PCI-E NIC or RAID cards.

Just trying something out. If it works, I'll post it here.

Sure be nice if we could hand the NIC and RAID card off of even a 1x PCI-e slot since it is good for a theoretical 250MB/sec and a 4X is good for 1GB/sec. Performance might get a bit of a boost.
