Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
So essentially a 1:100 contention ratio on a 10MB connection??? - I hope that it is a completely symmetrical backhaul connection, else you're customers will be down to a much less than a 100K (even worse a 10K uplink it you only have a 1MB back connection) uplink equivalent at busy times (and...
Clever, yes, interesting, yes, needed, ???
Why go for that approach rather than just a VM on a USB dongle for the AP - (much better antenna placement posibilties), especially if you are going to put it on a molex (since this would require the machine to be on anyway)?
Not sure what size HDD you are lookig to house - but if 2.5" then these by IcyBox are ideal - no need to have seperate housing on the go just eSATA:

@ Dieta, Nice little setup, although I would consider physical location next time - i am not sure I would want to stick my setup that close to pipe work joints, or what looks to be some kind of pressure tank!
@Moose - erm why did you put the cable path in front of the 1U server? surely leaving the gap above it would have been a lot more sense? - also what Syslog analyzer are you using?

Are you UK based? if so your 13Amp comment makes sense, most other countries do not use a ring arrangement like the UK, and use radial for sockets which are normally rated to 16Amp.
Interesting project - my main question is backup? If you are using this to house witness testaments surely those are critical items - you backing up to offsite storage - or just keeping the tape originals offsite?
Depends on your needs - if you need traffic shaping, caching, VPN (above 1 user), inspection, etc etc then no, if all you are wanting is a good basic router capable of DHCP and some low throughput (10MB to WAN) with basic QOS then yes :)
Depends if you need to transcode as well, if not then windows media services (included with windows server) will act as a distribution node for re-streaming (assuming you are using Windows Media Format)
