[MinnowBoard] mSATA Lure (aka Flotsam Lure)

With respect to the integrated switch, I would recommend avoiding that and
leaving them as discrete Ethernet interfaces. You can always bridge them in
software, making the design much more flexible. This is how the Ubiquiti
Edge Router Lite is setup and I find it very nice to work with.

Unless you meant 2 distinct interfaces AND a built-in switch, in which case
sure - although I think it might get cost/size prohibitive rather quickly.
