Mine works though.
Ghosting a bunch of computers for an upcoming install (pics to come next week when we start the install). Two racks, 24 2U computers, 5 audio mixers/amplifiers, and i believe 32 monitors on a wall (for those who have seen my installs, this is a video wall for monitor the security cameras in a town).
Yeah love those cases... take a bit of time if your not used to them, but good cases... fans sometimes die, but ehh what can ya do.
Update on this btw, if your gonna ghost a windows 7 machine, dont start the master system and accidently let it start to load windows, then shut down the PC to start ghosting... the ghost images won't work... have to redo my ghost image now, lol

where do most of you all buy your networking, rack gear at?
New egg ? Is where I got mine, then a friend powder coated it for me so it looks like a nice untangle box
I'm selling it tho ( case )
Really. Worked just fine for me after I did a full factory reset and IP reset.
That was the big gimmick, you had to reset it to factory, then keep holding the button for another 10sec to completely wipe out the IP settings.

Dash ur selling the green case? im just curious but PM me a price
this one ?
pm'd btw
Rack gear all from CDW, everything else direct from Juniper/Brocade.
Is that why there's no rails?Norco case for the win !!!
they don't use rails.
Yeah, I know. That's why Norco gear sucks.

The servers are half depth and can even be installed in Network racks. They really don't suck to install unless you have a hard time lifting the case to begin with.
guess you forgot to read the manual...

Too wide for what? I've always had them line up with my racks.
Never saw the manual -- never bought one. They're just too ghetto. I've seen some models advertised with rail kits, but once added you might as well get something nicer which has a better desing and included rail kits.
Oh so what your saying is, your comments are more useless than anything because you have never owned one nor used one, I think that sums up your comments..

Curious what kind of connection you have at home and why you would need soo many NICs for each machine/what the servers could possibly be doing?
And back online again after a write erase on each network device and a new addressing scheme.
The racks are not Dell, they are self-made. Have a third one for the Cisco Lab.
The connectors are powercon. Look the same as speakon but won't fit offcourse.
I did put powercon and ethercon on the racks so I can easily detach the whole rack at once. The panel with the blue ones is for power input (2 different feeds) and network connections to the patch panels at the garage. Panel with the white ones is for power and network to the cisco lab rack.
Connections are 50/10 DSL and a 5/1 Cable for backup. I don't use that much traffic here. Servers that do are in 2 datacenters.
Most network connections on the servers are iSCSI. The one with the 2 quad nics is an iSCSI server with MD1000 connected. Below that are 3 ESX servers and the bottom is a backup server.
Each server has at least one management interface for Remote Access and 2 Uplinks. Additional interfaces are iSCSI and Heartbeat.
Things that will run on the machines will be windows domain services/DNS/file services/application services, cisco callmanager, CVS, cacti/nagios for monitoring, (local and remote machines) and lots of development VM's.

Just a screenshot of my ESXi whitebox networking. I'll be hosting a small external facing website pretty soon, mostly for testing purposes. I will also be opening up my vSphere lab for outside access to anyone on this forum that wants it FOR STUDYING PURPOSES.
For a specific time limit you'll get access to 3 hosts with 4 vCPU/6 GB vRAM connected shared storage with all of the cool features of VMware enabled and operational.
