Nice one man!

looks like you have quite the system

[bad_brain]

yeah, nice one... are those hot swap HDD frames?
the only thing I would do is to organize the cables a little, looks better, better for maintenance and for the airflow...

btw, I felt free to edit your post and to use our own image host..

They're supposed to be designed for quick replacement of raid disks, but. I would still have to take off the back cover to get to the cables. But yeah, the whole case is suppossed to be screwless, I do have one screw in each of my 5.25 bay items though. Wobbles otherwise. Recently added a usb 3.0 pcie card and two usb 3.0 hubs, one front and one back. I only have one usb 3.0 device so far, but I plan to change that. But it's 5 1 tb hdds in raid 5, 2 volumes over 3-4 partitions. 1 os partition, 2 storage partitions, and I think that 100 mb partition 7 makes now. the OS partition is only like 350 gbs.


P.s. How dare you edit my post. Just kidding, thanks. I would have used the suck-o image host but you can only upload one at a time. And I'm lazy.

And here I thought I was living large with my 8GB OS drive and 30 GB of /home

Yeah, even having a job now I still like to glue my stuff back together rather than buy new stuff. More money for stuff I really want/need. And even then I tend to buy used and fix it up for cheap. Someday I'll have to get energetic and take pictures of my other computers and post them up, the ones literally held together by duct tape.

Just a quick photo of my room / new TV/Monitor and my PC,

[bad_brain]

[ayu]

Makes me want to get a new screen xD

[ph0bYx]

Nice case!

[bad_brain]

time for a little update about my setup...

the workplace


may I introduce? Mr. Blue, the main system, on the left, and on the right Mr. Red the home server (case illumination and network cables in matching colors ^^)


TV with 2x1.5TB externals and WD media player, all networked with the main system (watching Giro d' Italia on TV at the moment ^^).


here the externals and the media player with the 8 port hub, doing some file transfers to the encrypted DMZ'd external at the moment, that's why the cables are a bit disorganized. ^^


workplace from my normal POV


inside of Mr. Blue (note to myself: finally remove that damn wire in front of the CPU fan, lazy bum!)

[ayu]

Nice setup b_b!
I like the placement of the rabbit xD
Oh and be careful when watering those plants

Guess I'll post an update on my setup as well.

Overview


Bitcoin setup


Servers

you can bet I am VERY cautious! I am using clay pebbles instead of soil though, so I only have to fill the saucers with water and the plants can suck it up from there....adding water from the top would be too risky.
and yeah...the killer bunny...it guards my system from malware and skiddies when I am away..XD

nice setup you have there too buddy, really well organized...I like that.

how's the mining going btw?
