CSLAB CSMIO/IP-M 4-axis Ethernet Motion Controller

I'm not sure that only being 5V matters too much in this case. Connections will be short inside the control box, and if you use twisted pair and differential connections there is a pretty high degree of noise immunity anyway. You will be using differential connections?

Didn't see the other posts answering the question but just to back up what neale says about being 5v. The Cslabs are by far the best controllers I've used when it comes to noise immunity and by some way. Not many controllers can handle working along side high frequency devices like TIG welders but these do without any sign of trouble.
Wiring with differential connections is essential to give you best protection so makes sure you do.

I have an Asrock Q1900M with celeron dualcore prozessor afaik
2Ghz and 2GB DDR3 Ram, because the board should only control the machine, I have added a 64GB SSD. the board only needs 10W and the SSD nearly nothing, the big advantage is, a SSD can't be damaged as easy as a HD.
