Hi I'm looking to replace a mini itx MB that I have set up at home for a file/media server. There doesn't seem to be much available.

I need something that will run Windows and ideally 5 SATA ports.

I'm in Auckland and can pick up anywhere in Auckland.

PS: Server grade MBs are likely to be out of my budget - and probably overkill anyway.

Hey, have you listed a price, location and how much shipping would be to other parts of New Zealand? Also if you are asking for a PM make sure your Privacy settings allow your account to receive PM otherwise people can't contact you. Also note if you are selling something we ask you to offer to other members first. Links to private sales (including Trade Me posts) aren't accepted anymore and will be removed.

What CPU?

Personally I use a Gigabyte h87N-Wifi for my m-itx server. Works well and wasn't too badly priced

Not really too fussed. So little available atm - even in the 2nd hand market. I would consider anything from the last 5 years. Current MB is running a Core 2 Duo so i5/i7 would be ideal.

Have a look at New Egg as they have a much wider range for m-ITX motherboards than the NZ retailers by the looks of it.
