New system hardware compatibility

[larlap]

I was thinking about using a Gigabyte C246-WU4 motherboard with a Xeon E-2124 processor and 32G G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16.

I plan to use it for zfs storage. Is there any reason this combo might not work?

This would be my first build for a FreeBSD system.

Thanks

I don't see anything glaringly obvious why it wouldn't work.

You need to research the Intel LAN provided on this motherboard.
Some of the newest Intel interfaces are not supported yet.
So using the datasheet the i210 is probably supported but the i219 is not (On FreeBSD 12)

At least it's not those weird 2.5GBit/s interfaces. But yeah, the specs don't exactly tell you which Intel Gigabit chipset they used.

It's in the PDF: Intel i210AT and i219LM

Thank you all. This is an amazing community.
