Mini ITX board for NAS

["Paul Gordon" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Because there are so many to choose from, and no easy search/filtering
tools on linitx.com, I thought I'd be a bit lazy & just ask here...

Are there any mini ITX mobos with no less than 4 SATA ports, - and with
a low-profile design that will fit in a 1U case? - SATA ports must be
onboard since I don't think it's going to be possible to utilise any
kind of add-on SATA controller in this case...

I'm thinking of making a NAS device, reusing a 1U NAS rack case that I
recently inherited. The case currently has a custom mobo in it, which I
want to replace. I believe I can fit a mini-ITX board in, - but I won't
be able to (easily) make the back panel IO ports accessible - not
without recourse to a dremel anyways.. So long as I can make something
that is happy to run headless I don't think this will be a problem, - I
should only need to get power & LAN to it, which should be easy
enough...

Cheers
