All,

  It is time for my server to be upgraded and I am looking for advice. I 
usually build my machine so, I am looking primarily for a motherboard 
that has several sata ports that is  compatible with linux.

I looked at Asrock extreme6, but apparently it has 4 of its 10 sata 
ports are on ASMedia ASM 1061 chipset which apparently is not supported 
on linux per what I can find on various comments/information from the net

All others seem to be X99 or other server chipsets which I am not fond 
of. I like desktop boards as the server also doubles as mythtv 
backend/frontend.

Let me know if this is the wrong thread and I should ask some where else.

Regards
Ramesh
