[MinnowBoard] NIC Lure

[Scott Guthrie]

Hmmm...I'm kinda hoping for a regular SATA connector.

If the NIC Lure had a regular SATA Port, you'd have the basis for a nice 2
Drive HomeBrew NAS box, or possibly a PLEX server...and conceivably, you
could aggregate the two NICs (Having said that, I've never played with NIC
bonding, so I'm not sure that would work in this case).

Having said that, mSATA would be more appealing from a power perspective,
as the mSATA connector carries it's own DC, so that's one less thing you
have to worry about....
