No, it's a Tyan K8WE:

With a quad port Intel NIC in one of the 133MHz PCI-X slots.  There's a
Supermicro Marvell 8x SATA card in another slot that's been experiencing
ZFS CKSUM errors since updating to 8 too, which is slightly suspicious.

Would like to replace the SATA card with a nice simple AHCI board.
Sadly nobody seems to make them.
