Again, the list of currently supported SPARC hardware is here:
http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/sparc.html
If you are looking for a machine with PCI-Express slots V215 and
V245 currently are your only option.
If you give me remote serial access and access to a netboot server
I'll add support for your M3000. This would take some weeks though
as this isn't the x86-world where everything is backwards-compatible.
