    Suitable replacement for GA-8KNXP rev.2

    My gigabyte 8KNXP flaked out while still under warranty. I sent it back to the factory and they couldn't repair it and didn't have any available 8KNXP boards left to send as a replacement. Any ideas on which of the current gigabyte offerings would be a comparable substitute for my 8KNXP?

    The 8PENXP has 4 sata and 4 ide slots on board. You can run 4 sata connection drives and 8 ide connection drives and they do not have to be in a raid setup. You could also do this with the 8KNXP.
