Introduction
Cleaning out my friends garage he came across an old server case, after hearing I was looking for a new case he called me up and showed me this beauty.
"This is the affordable mission-critical server for departmental file and application servers. This powerful system has a lot of innovative features to offer: memory located on processor board for increased maximum memory on higher performance processor boards, preinstalled NetFlex-3/P Controller, multiple expansion slots; There is Integrated Fast-Wide SCSI-2/P Controller; total of eight drive bays including three removable media bays and five hot-pluggable bays, quadSpeed CD-ROM drive standard, SMART-2/P Array Controller standard on array models, Compaq Insight Manager and Compaq SmartStart standard Redundant power supply upgrade available." -Google
Sounds like a monster in my book! :rofl:
I didnt get too much modding done yesterday, a combo of too much booze and a trip to go check out some local bands was the plan of the night.
Front logo in all its gawdy goodness. Im not sure what Im going to do with this space after.
Motivation! We called it antifreeze, since when mixed its what it resembled. Thats redbull on the bottom, with blue powerade in the middle and a few shots of vodka sitting on top, poured over ice. Once mixed it was a very nice green, tho I didnt get a pic.
And another...
Here is the front. Im strongly considering keeping it as close to the original look as possible, other than adding a few vandal proof switches and led/ccfl inside the case... but thats a ways off.
Side shot with panel on. Thats my buddy there, hes close to 6' tall, just for reference.
Top mount radiator? Hmmm
I dont think this is standard ATX form factor, that I/O cutout looks bigger than usual...

Side window is definitely on the menu.
