Here's what I get from the Intel PC: 
Quite a bit of difference. :? You can see the EPP setting in my setup. I basically duplicated them in BIOS. A few shots of the new server: 
Looks OK from the front. The door is closed most times in use. 
Back view. 
I did clean off the fingerprints. :lol: 
The front panel open. I put in three of the Lian-Li 5.25 to 3.5 adapters. About $4 each. They have two small fans and a fan failure buzzer. Cheap, but work very well. I could have painted them black to look better, but it's a server. :lol: 
The internals. The 500W Thermaltake PS is more than enough for 10 HDDs. I'll leave the PATA DVD ROM in there for now. Also presently using a 200GB Maxtor PATA boot drive. Two of the lower drives are the 500GB Seagate SATA drives. The upper next is a 80GB drive, but I have a another 500GB on order. The topmost drive is the Maxtor. This photo was taken before I added the SATA cables and the two PCI slot SATA controllers. I stuffed the extra PS Molex connectors up on top of the PS until they are needed. I cut off the floppy PS connectors. I used a stock CPU cooler that I had and added a 120mm fan in front of the HDDs. It runs very quiet. So much so, that I'm going to retrofit the older servers with quiet fans. :) When I add more drives, I'll probably pull the PATA drives and replace everything with SATA as I have enough SATA connections with the two controllers added. |
