How can I determine if my motherboard will work with unRAID?
• One way is to check the Hardware Compatibility lists to see if your specific motherboard has already been proven to work. • Another method is to see if any motherboards listed in Hardware Compatibility are using the same chipsets for disk controllers and network connectivity as your potential motherboard. • A third method, and sometimes easiest if you already own the motherboard, is to prepare a flash drive with unRAID and use it to boot up your potential motherboard. If it boots and you see a “Login” prompt on the system console, it is a good clue that you will be able to boot from your flash drive. If you can browse to the web-management page, it is a very good indication that everything will work on your LAN. If on “Devices” page you can see your disks as potential choices in the drop-down lists, the motherboard is compatible.
