ASRock combines Avoton SoC, 12 SATA ports on Mini-ITX mobo
 

Attention, home server builders. ASRock has come up with a Mini-ITX motherboard with 12 Serial ATA ports. The awkwardly named C2750D4I is based on Avoton, the server-oriented sibling of Intel's Bay Trail Atom processors. The Atom C2750 SoC soldered onto the board has eight Silvermont cores clocked at up to 2.6GHz, doubling the core count of the most capable Bay Trail chips. Impressively, it appears to get by with passive cooling, as well.
