    File server upgrade path: Stay with hardware RAID or move to new-fangled file system?

    I think it is you who is missing something. most likely some common sense. (sorry, not really trying to start a fight here but you do need to make sure your facts and common history knowledge are correct before you put your foot into your mouth.) I will not claim to know all about MS history...

    [USED] Ultimate File Server - 24 Bay SuperMicro Opteron Servers w/24 Port RAID $299+

    you can not use the 140mm fans without the PSU mode. the PSU wall takes up space where the fans need to go. the 3x120mm fit perfectly in the space where current fan-wall sits. I decide to get 120 for now and when I do the PSU mode I will get 140. may be sell the 120 for soemthing :-)

    [USED] Ultimate File Server - 24 Bay SuperMicro Opteron Servers w/24 Port RAID $299+

    I can not recommend fan controller as I do not use them. but the thing is you do the fan wall and PSU mods because of the noise, and I do not think you can control noise from PSU(and in mine experience the most noise on this system is from the PSU) on this servers with a fan controller. plus...

    [USED] Ultimate File Server - 24 Bay SuperMicro Opteron Servers w/24 Port RAID $299+

    can it be you have a deeper case? I put a 140mm fan on the bracket and it was sticking out form the top. that is why I went back to 120mm. I want to keep the bracket for cable management.

    [USED] Ultimate File Server - 24 Bay SuperMicro Opteron Servers w/24 Port RAID $299+

    no , no photos. I took the pics but they are huge and limetech only allow files @195k size. however I am not the first to do this. I have seen modes to this case with 140mm fans.but you need to do the PSU mod as well as the 140mm fans are wall to wall fit. (it's interesting that 3 140mm are...

    [USED] Ultimate File Server - 24 Bay SuperMicro Opteron Servers w/24 Port RAID $299+
