I am planning to buy the ASRock N3150DC-ITX for primarily NAS, then TV Recording and seldom used Media Center device. I plan to support the following devices by DC Power Supply from the board with following priority: 1. 2x 3,5 HDD 2. 2.5 SSD 3. PCIe Card for DVBS2 TV (Technotrend S2 4100, or do you have a better recommendation?) 4. 5.25 DVD-Burner (5. USB Stick for DVB,DAB,FM) The connection is possible but I am worried if the mainboard is available to support this many devices by dc power. Could you state if it is possible. What minimum DC Power Supply do you recommend? I would look for an 120 W or 160 W if available. |

First off, I am NOT an ASRock Technician. Boy. I think your good except for ""3. PCIe Card for DVBS2 TV"" and or maybe the DVD burner, depending. See page 8 of the online manual at: ftp://europe.asrock.com/Manual/N3150DC-ITX.pdf" rel="nofollow - ftp://europe.asrock.com/Manual/N3150DC-ITX.pdf  |

Thanks for your quick reply. I assume 90 W power supply is the maximum for the board. And the DVBS2 card would be too much. They would fall in the <40 W category, because of the LNB power. I was first thinking of an Pico PSU for this configuration, but they support only 2 HDD Power connectors. Then I found this DC board. A standard board with ATX power supply would consume too much power in idle mode. |
