I'm running a bit short on storage in my serverroom right now. (for those who don't know my server room is made out of many used computers and servers I got for cheap from companies who bought new ones) So I'm looking for a cheap motherboard that comes with one of those low powered cpu's. maybe a cheap raid card, and a case that can hold a shitload of harddrives. (i got enough drives so don't need those)

standalone. I have "a rack" but it's just a steel rack with zipties for the cables. not a real 19" server rack :P

It doesn't have to be special. Find the cheapest motherboard with integrated cpu, as long as it has ethernet!
