Worklog : The Wooden Home Server

And since the thing is completely open, no need for fans either :devil2:

DUST!

But since your config is relatively low-powered that's okay, I incorporated my long pending HTPC desire into this as well heh!

Thanks for the appreciation guys! A proper "show-off" once its fully spruced up

The inside after everything has been mounted.

This one's for Greasemonk. You'll now figure why I'm going for the brushed chrome finish

1080p to the Hitachi


Sorry for the grainy pictures, will shoot some better ones with my other cam once its fully done.

Excellent work there. Repped you!

One question Anish,

Why did u go for foam:

1. For noise reduction?

2. Will it not provide capacitance? Considering that they have tendency to absorb moisture?

I like your idea very much. However I am planning it in a different way. The whole setup would be part of furniture cabby. I see that you have Marantz, can you share its details?

Any further progress on this??
Hows it running??

 

[Anish]

Its been running super smooth for the past 2 months. Max uptime was a month and a half before which I had to shut down briefly to move some equipment.

Will be adding a new WD 640 for backups, just waiting for KMD to deliver one more 120mm fan for internal cooling and the chrome finish sheet!
