Has anyone considered the Gigabyte GA-G33-DS3R which has a G33 chipset (P35 
with builtin video). It has that builtin VGA and the most on board, well 
supported, SATA ports I could find:
8xSATA; 6xSATA provided by the ICH9 and 2xSATA on JMB363. The latter must be 
supported by OpenSolaris? It's been out a while now at least and is well 
supported by other OSes.
One problem is a Realtek NIC which may not be supported by OSolaris?
All the hardware is supported by FreeBSD 7.0 if that's of any use.
Having builtin VGA it's a very low power board.
Couple that with one of the very cheap Core2Duo E2140 and you have a good base 
for a ZFS RAIDZ system.
Cheers.
