Hi all,

For a few years, I've known that my media server's motherboard[1] was poten=
tially vulnerable to a bricking issue[2]. It looks like that day has come. :=
-/

Or it might just be "normal" old-age, since I've had the board for ~4.5 yea=
rs.

Either way, I find myself in need of a new motherboard. My requirements are=
:

- 2C/4T amd64 (4C/8T preferred)
- 2x DDR4 slots (4x preferred)
- 6x SATA ports (8x preferred)
- 2x 1GbE NICs
- 1x 80mm M.2 slot (2x preferred, 110mm preferred)
- 1x PCIe x8 slot (2x preferred)
- BMC w/ dedicated NIC

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Ravi (rpokala@)
