This is not a case mod or anything, but I thought some of you who, like me, don't get to play with some of this stuff every day will enjoy it.
I have taken on the task of building a setup for a friend of mine. Basically it is a rackmount setup with 3 computers all run through a KVM switch and enclosed as a single "computer"
He did most of the part choice with me helping out with questions and details. He payed for it all and had it shipped to me. Now I get to put it together.
I will post pictures as this progresses. I will start with what has been purchased:
-18U low profile enclosed rack with steel rear door and smoked glass front door
-Rack Mount KVM Switch
-3 APC1200 UPS units
-20.1" Widescreen LCD monitor
-Logitech Wireless KB/Mouse combo
-3 Steel rack mount server chassis
PC1 (personal):
PCP&C 510 PSU
Abit AL8
PentiumD 920
2GB Corsair DDR2
2x Liteon DVDRW
150GB WD Raptor
ATI Radeon X1600 Pro 512MB
ATI HDTV Wonder TV Tuner
PC2 (personal fileserver):
PCP&C 510 PSU
Abit AL8
PentiumD 920
2GB Corsair DDR2
Liteon DVDRW
37GB WD Raptor
500GB Seagate Barracude SATA3.0
2x250GB Seagate Barracude SATA3.0
ATI Radeon X300SE 128MB
PC3 (Personal web/mail server):
PCP&C 510 PSU
Abit AL8
PentiumD 920
2GB Corsair DDR2
Liteon DVDRW
37GB WD Raptor
2x250GB Seagate Barracude SATA3.0
ATI Radeon X300SE 128MB
The hardware is pretty standard on all 3 computers. None of it is super high-end stuff, but it still should be decently fast and a lot of fun to build. First batch of pictures in next post.
