want a 1U or 2U server with niceties like hotswap hard drives, redundant

servers.
This is going into a 4U chassis with redundant PSU and hotswap :) The
remaining hardware is largely constrained by budget. But of course, if
anybody has a better suggestion for a reasonably priced board from Asus
or Gigabyte that has two NIC, supports Core 2 Duo and ECC with onboard
graphics, I'm all game :)
I don't think you need confine yourself to motherboards with dual NICs.
It is so easy to add an additional PCI NIC card ....
