SUPERMICRO LAID OUT the Nehalem boards at IDF with no less than four solutions on hand. They had everything from 2S to 1/2U servers up and running.
The first two were very similar, the X8DT3 and the X8DT3/i pictured above. The former has two sockets and an Intel IOH-36D chipset (aka Tylersburg). It will support three PCIe 2.0 8x slots, one physically 16x, and a lone 4x as well. There are eight LSI-based SAS ports, six SATA, dual LAN, VGA, six USB and optional KVMs.
