Nice Board but....

Pros: Supermicro server-quality board, nice features and layout.
Cons: Shipped with wrong backplate!
Overall Review: I use Supermicro for all my servers and workstations and wanted to try these boards out for standard systems. Ordered two of these boards for work systems, one arrived with the wrong backplate. Hoping that Supermicro can get the correct backplate to me quickly, as the new employee I'm building this system for starts middle of January '16. Would hate to have to install the motherboard without a backplate then remove the motherboard just to install the correct one.
Junk, Destroyed 2 Backup Drives
![WAVLINK USB 3.0 to SATA I/II/III Dual Bay External Hard Drive Docking Station for 2.5/3.5 Inch HDD/SSD with UASP (6Gbps), Support Offline Clone Duplicator Function [Max 16TB X2 ]](https://c1.neweggimages.com/ProductImageCompressAll125/0VN-0069-00014-S02.jpg)
Pros: It's pretty with blinking lights.
Cons: Turned 2 of my 6 TB WD Red backup drives to RAW partitions. Lost one drive completely and spending days recovering data from the other.
Overall Review: Should have listened to the negative reviews complaining of the same issue. Would give it 0 eggs if I could. Returning to Newegg.
Nice Little Server

Pros: -Preinstalled EPYC 4464P cpu! -Great Support from Ivan at Newegg Business and Jimmy at Gigacomputing!
Cons: -Fans can be loud, especially at startup when they go full bore for 30-ish seconds, but to be expected on a 1U server. -Drivers only available for Win 11, Win 10 and Windows Server 2022. Also says it's compatible with Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04, but did not find any drivers for Linux.
Overall Review: Nice little server, with the EPYC 4464P preinstalled, a fantastic value! I have it running Windows Server 2022 with SQL Server 2019 and 64 GB of Nemix DDR5 4800 ECC RAM, with two Samsung PM893 960 GB SSDs in Raid 1. Be sure to get UDIMMs, I accidently got RDIMMs and had to return them. A mounting rail kit could be nice, it is optional. I found the product number for the rail kit but was unable to locate one from a trusted source. Would definitely purchase again.
Right part, fast shipping

Overall Review: Right part, shipped fast, would not hesitate to order from this seller again.
Nice System with Excellent Build Quality, Wish I could have kept it

Pros: System build was clean and with quality parts, EVGA power supply and video card.
Cons: Video card got damaged in shipment and was showing colored line artifacts. Packaging was good, so likely just really poor handling by the shipper.
Overall Review: If there had been more in stock, I would have asked for a replacement, because I was really happy with the system quality. Newegg refunded and I purchased something else as I needed it ASAP for a user.
Nice Little Budget System

Pros: Nice system for the price. Surprised to see an ASUS motherboard in a budget friendly gaming system. Off-the-shelf components, easy to upgrade. On-board wireless with external antenna provided.
Cons: Single stick of 8 GB, so no dual channel memory, could easily bump this to 16 GB for not much more cost.
Overall Review: If you're looking for a budget friendly gaming system that uses off-the-shelf components for easy future upgrades, this will do nicely.
Shipped 2nd Day Fedex for free, works perfectly in my GIGABYTE R113-C10-AA02 server. Would buy from again.
Item shipped fast, arrived as described, but was incompatible with my hardware. They processed my return just as quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to order from this seller again.
