My "new" server

[RoundEye]

I just upgraded my server. New case, power supply, raid card and hard drives.

Have a look...........

nice job

i like that case

[BaLa]

very nice... :D

[YARDofSTUF]

i dont really like the look of the case, but definately a nice job with it!!!

[Rings890]

Looks good, what make of case is that?

[RoundEye]

I got it from ColorCases.com (http://www.colorcases.com/cases/cases.html) but I'll never order from there again. It took them about 25 days to ship my case after I ordered it.

[CBurcik]

Thanks for not being naked while taking the picture...

I assume that is your reflection in the second pic....

Roundeye could have been the next "reflection" picture email that I get 3 times a week.

Oh...


the case looks very nice.

[el bob]

sweet setup roundeye

i don't think i've ever seen so many unused ide ports :-D

[Easto]

Nice, I've seen those cases at the computer swapmeet here and they are really nice. I'm almost ready to buy one.

Radio Shack. They have a big ol' bag of multicolored ones for about six bucks. The wrap on the power supply came with the supply itself.

I'm in love

can i marry it?

[Chris]

These ole' slot 1's just keep chuggin along 24/7, minimal fans needed.
What OS ya runnin on it?

[RoundEye]

Windows 2000 Server. Just using it for log-on and DNS right now, eventually a game server.

[Chris]

That sounds like a good idea since it is sitting there 24/7:)
Just started the DNS service and going to enter its address in all the machines Never messed with DNS before, anything a guy needs to know??? hint hint hint..........lol

[RoundEye]

Here's a hint for you. (http://forums.speedguide.net/showthread.php?s=&postid=614212#post614212)

Yes, there's a small door so that you can get to it.

[TEH WIN]

hope you dont mind me copying you on that case... its just so nice!

im going to order it this weekend

how did the ordering process go? how long did it take to ship it? how much was shipping?

[RoundEye]

Copy all you want, no big deal to me. But like I mentioned it took almost a month to get from colorcase, without the powersupply I think it was a little less than $100. You may want to look around a bit and see if another dealer has one, unless your willing to wait for it.

I think it's a nice case and I'm happy with it. It even comes with a little side piece to put where the door is, should you not want to have the mirrored door on it.

[TEH WIN]

who is the manufacturer?

[RoundEye]

I don't know.

[p2ii]

i have the 0403 eclipse blue on the 4th row down but i got it fromwww.digitally-unique.com (http://www.digitally-unique.com)

[limxdul]

very nice case, good orginization, ever think of getting some plexiglass and putting a window on that baby? :)

[RoundEye]

limxdul, I have a case that I modding right now with windows and stuff. I just wanted this one neat and to have good air flow. Plus it's in a spot that it can't be seen to easily.

[TEH WIN]

yo roundeye, how much did you pay for shipping?

[TEH WIN]

hey roundeye.. one more question

did yours have the ugly writting on the front like this?

http://65.119.30.151/productimage/11-126-007-02.JPG

[RoundEye]

It has Noblesse written on upper left hand corner and that's it.

[TEH WIN]

ok im gonna order it tomorrow.. thanks roundeye

hopefully ill have a better experience with colorcases.com than you did

[RoundEye]

It's a nice case. I think you'll do better than I did, I think my order just slipped through the cracks some how.

[TEH WIN]

did you order any fans with it?

[RoundEye]

No, I have a Enermax power supply which has two fans. Plus it's not overclocked and I cut two big holes in the case and put filters in the cut out holes. It's my server which runs 24/7, haven't had any over heating problems yet.

[TEH WIN]

i bit the bullet and ordered the case!!!!!

weeeeeeeee!!!!

i also orderd a 80mm quietfan with it.. 6 bucks cant beat that

thanks for all the answers roundeye!

[XSeaNX]

that IS a really nice case.....it was my second choice in cases....and it will probably be my next case when I build another computer.....that bottom slot would be good for a zipdisk drive should the need ever arive to use it.....put your main drives up top and your backups down at the bottom :D or you could put something that would display the temperature...that was its out of the way and not intrusive...

Sean

[TEH WIN]

that zip drive is an awesome idea!!!! i wanted to put a cd rom down there but i couldnt figure out how to do it and keep both cd roms on the same ide cable. but now ill just put a zip drive and the hard drive on the same ide!

thanks sean!

[XSeaNX]

=) no problem...NOW LETS PLAY UO!!!!

[Onethenumber2]
