I'm thinking of using a i5 laptop CPU (with this motherboard) for a low power [usage] server.
I would need another NIC since it's a gateway which would eat up the PCI-E slot. 5 sata ports should be fine.
It should be quite a bit of power (2 cores x 2 HT) for a mere 35W TDP.
Any downside to this? Any suggestions on which of those 3 cpus I should get?
