yea shes a Highpoint RocketRaid 2320.
good little card, but only 3 ports left empty now, so will be requiring another one shortly!
 
Holy shit! You turn that old case into a Lian Li! You're a magician! :)

Nice work BTW.
 
Thankyou Danny. :)
next stage is:
1)strip it all out add 2x120mm blow holes to the top of the case
2)Create custom dual power supply bracket ( so i can have dual Silverstone Striders in there)
3)more drives!!!

might have to do 3, 2 and then one at the moment, as they are the most needed.
Cheers!
 
Bit of backround too sorry... had an old AMD 3500+ 2GB of RAM. and was having overheating problems/ lack of space for expansion in the beige case as shown in picture one. So I decided to do a total overhaul, and at the time of buying everything the Dual Optys showed at a very cheap price, with ram and motherboard, so I took it all.
Basic history of the project but you get the point
 
**** UPDATE*****

Have chucked in a few drives

my.php

Cheers
 
Nice looking project. I really like that case too. Is that the one with 12 hard drive bays?
 
Yes it is. plus 8 Drives can fit in the front with the cm drive bay adapters = 20 drives!
Cheers
 
Update again!

have replaced all the drives in the system with terabytes, now have 11x1TB drives.
And a large wire tidy (see pic)
comments\ideas\questions welcome.
cheers

If you find those cpu fans too loud, you should go to SVC.com and buy some shrouds and stick some 80's on there. Thats what I did with my MSI sinks. Made is very pleasant to work with and you get a better flowrate.
