Review: Great server board - I have this board doing my server duties. I updated BIOS to prevent any issues with 13th generation Intel CPU. Nig plus, it supports ECC memory. It seems to have enough expansion slots, however after adding 10Gbe card, Nvidia GPU and LSi HBA card I'm left with only one more slot. The top two slots support PCIe Gen 4 and only one of them utilizes more PCIe lanes. I may use it to install Asus NVME expansion card. Beware, that this motherboard chip will only allow 2 more additional NVME drives. I could not get SlimSAS connector to work initially. However, after poking in the BIOS I was able to find option that enabled SlimSAS. This option is not in Bios Storage setup. I believe, SlimSAS can be passthrough to VM. I have a tiny complain. Why there are only 4 SATA ports? Not enough.

Glad to have decided on this MB for my home server. Overall it does everything it says on the tin. Having 3 x M.2 slots is convenient, IPMI card is a nice bonus and ECC support is also great. All worked as expected
