I think those need their own thread!
As a quick tip - PCB on carpet is a bad idea. You've got a perfect storm for ESD doing that.

LOL, at least we have options now, felt held hostage before w/ ONLY 10G copper ports. Weak sauce.
Everyone will NEVER be happy hah, those new board look dope!
I wouldn't give ASRock a single penny. They can't release a product on time or keep product in stock. I can't imagine what their support is like.
Hi,
long time reading, first post ....
Nice to see that the ASRock - Boards at least physically exist ...
Hopefully they will be available somewhen in EU, too.
Also the new SM Boards look promising, even if a 1541 in exchange of the 1537 on the X10SDV-7TP4F would be nice.
I`m lurking for boards with 2+ pcie and sfp+ on the 10G nics for a while now.
Dumb question, will any of the boards fit in sc826 / sc825 ?
Have some around here that i`d like to use for evaluation.

Guess i read here some other german member returned his due to the sr-iov issues....
Where have you ordered yours ?

I ordered mine at BASIS GmbH , as this was the first retailer who listed it. I remember this former post about the sr-iov issues, too. But this was about the first xeon-d wave (xeon-d 1520 xeon-d 1540). Those older xeon-D's are available. Unfortunately the new ones, which have a lower TDP (35W) still seem to be unavailable.
Ok, missed the 4c in the model number. Quite good prices for germany, didn't know this retailer before.
Update on Asrock Board Build..Mostly everything is good...Just have few issues...
1) Supemicro front panel connector is 24 pin...But asrock is using 6 pin... Building a custom cable to resolve this
2) LSI 3008 came with firmware version 8.Which gave issues in Omni OS...I flashed firmware version 11 from LSI site..This seems to be working fine now in Omni Os.
3) BMC firmware has issues. Reported to Asrock. They were able to recreate the issues I had.They are working on fix.Hopefully will get new firmware soon.

acmcool - Any chance you would mind booting that board to a FreeBSD live cd and see if the 10g sfp+ ports are recognized (and if so, let me know which driver they use)? I'm very much considering the D1540D4U-2T2O8R as the base of a new file server build and want to be sure those 10g sfp+ ports will work. I haven't found much information on the PCH CS422's that are listed as being used and all but if someone knows this information already please let me know.
Much appreciated!
Good news for anyone running (or wanting to run) FreeNAS on X10SDV at 10GE... Intel X557 drivers just got backported to FreeNAS 9.3.1. Nightly, but seems to be running stable.
