Taiyo, u must be really paranoid about physically present hackers, what with the FUCKING HUGE CAMERA AIMED RIGHT AT THE FUCKING CHAIR.

That'll catch those pesky hackers in the act.

Is that a nuclear weapon on the top of your rack?

Taiyo...what is even going on there?!  You've got like a built-in subwoofer?  And what is that thing on top of your massive case for your case?  I'm guessing you do a lot of audio / mixing / music?  Please explain your crazy setup.

It's a homebrew UPS. The network must live!

I used to build loudspeakers and racks for DJs and musicians before I started uni, I kept one of the 600mm cube subs and racks for myself. I don't do any music or DJing, but my room gets invaded when my housemates want to do some recording - two are guitarists.

1) how big are those hard drives?
2) please tell me they are in raid 5
3) are those 512,1GB, or 2GB dimms?
4) is that an 80mm cpu fan?
5) how much effort did it take to stick a desktop into a 3u?

[Taiyo.uk]

1x 320GB for /boot and /backup
4x 200GB on RAID5 for /home, /usr and /var

They are 512MB sticks

That's a stock Intel fan (made by Delta Electronics). It looks like 80mm, but then core 2 duos have a TDP of 65W. SETI@home and climateprediction.net keep both cores at 100% all the time and the heatsink temp never rises above 52°C with the fan near minimum speed. The northbridge is more of a problem hence the 40mm fan glued onto it.

It's a 4U case, I had to ditch the original hard drive cage since the discs overheated within twelve minutes (five discs with 2mm spacing and no cooling, great design!), I made the fan bracket for the 40mm fans above the discs. It wasn't that hard to fit it all in because there's no chunky PSU as it runs on 12V - you can see the DC/DC board next to the two 120mm fans.

That is fucked man...

None should have that much spare time!

[Taiyo.uk]

It was a one and a half hour build job. Really, the custom parts were made from stock aluminium bar and angle section with a drill, a hacksaw and a file, it's a total botch-up. A decent rack case with hot-swap cages, etc. was some way out of my budget.

[Kaleo]

Y'know, that is something I can aspire to...

This is the "family computer," a.k.a. the Windows Box. I just got back from two trips, so I've got a lot of junk piles up around it. :oops:

Thats because there is a huge sheet of glass on top. I think the desk is circa 1968.
But Nitrox' computers blow mine away, seriously.
