I'm also interested in this board/server. I'm looking for a good database server that will run happily in amd64 mode. The GX28 would be good enough (4 hot swappable bays which is essential) but I want the option of using dual-core CPUs in case we want to go quad-core later. Anyone confirm they have a functional GT24? (Or for that matter recommend a similar spec server in the same price range - I can't find any) Ashley
