    I'm trying to find out any info about this server motherboard I came accross. I know its a Foxconn and on it it says P/N DA0T91MB8D3 Rev: D. I cant find any manual when I search the Foxconn site or anywhere else.
    It has two 8pin EPS 12v slots which are for two 1207(F) sockets. It has no 20 or 24 pin ATX slot for main power. Does it just use the two 8pin slots for power.
    It has 6 SATA connecters and the power for these seems to come from the board.
    All I could find in a search was this http://esp.ebay.com/viewItem?item=360228361766&v=gbh

    Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

    Can you post a picture of all the labels/markings on it. The reason I ask is a lot of manufacturers (eg: IBM) have part numbers included in serial numbers etc. eg: 11S43W1132YKXXXXXXXXXXX. Where the 3rd to the 9th characters are the alternate part number.

    There may be something similar for this manufacturer.

    Thanx for the reply funk-you
    I've added an attachment. Not a whole lot on the board.

    I can see the CPU's get thier power from the Dual 8pin EPS 12 volt connectors
    but how does the rest of the board get its power. Like SATA & USB for example. No 20 or 24pin ATX.

    At a guess - From JP7 and JP9

    Your EPS is the only thing I can see.

    Are you saying the two EPS are going to power two opteron cpu's, 8 banks of memory, 6 SATA drives, Ethernet and USB.

    Do you think I can use a PSU with a P8 and a P4 connectors (attached).
    That is, can I use an EPS adapter to add another P8 connector.

    Somebody in the US is selling the same mobo:
    http://esp.ebay.com/viewItem?item=360228361766&v=gbh

    You could always try asking them if they can give you some extra info on its origin.
