    Yes, I expect the areca line to mature, of course. And with its benefit of cache it might be the go-to card in the future.

    having so many problems getting the ram it is ridiculous. The kingston ram they linked ( KVR800D2D8P6/4G ) is discontinued. NO ebay doesnt have it either

    Had to call Unigen American office directly in order to find the other part that their tech support recommends (UG51T7200N8DR-8CC). it will cost 350 and have a 2-3 week lead time(have to ship from taiwan for christ sakes). I could also have a custom module made by memoryten manufacturer meeting the specifications for 250 usd with lead time of five days (but no guarantees on if it works there)...hmm.
    any other ideas guys? seems they didnt have much planning in regards to this ram. the older ram runs at 667 and if i am going to buy ANY ram for this it will be 4gb and run at the max 800mhz. the 2gb sticks are everywhere, but that.

    need some memory gurus to weigh in here....seriously im struggling!

    the spec is:
    512M x 72-bit 4GB (4096MB) DDR2-800 CL6 SDRAM
    (Synchronous DRAM) "dual rank" Registered w/Parity memory module. The
    components on
    this module include eighteen 256M x 8-bit DDR2-800 SDRAM in FBGA packages.
    This 240-
    pin DIMM uses gold contact fingers and requires +1.8V

    it MUST be x8 or x16... (18 IC only is what is making it hard to find a
    replacement.)

    my impatience is not making this easy...
