ASRock C226M WS Schematic
This combination of advanced features, integrated into a compact board, makes the C226M WS a great candidate for a wide range of workstation and server needs.
ASRock is a less known brand, and fairly new to us here at Puget Systems, but so far the motherboards we've used from them have been quite good! This little fella is a nice one, in that it provides a lot of desktop / workstation oriented features with a Xeon processor platform for things like ECC memory support. We've seen similar boards from other brands before, but not usually in a small micro ATX form factor like this.
