going from your other post in GD, that was quickWorking on it
Nice log... I may have to have a chat with you on MSN one night regarding the server you have with all the storage as using my desktop PC as a storage device with over 5 Tb of space which is filled with various media files is not really ideal now my network setups changed quite a lot.
I had a fairly similar idea to that about a year ago, mainly because my desktop is in my room and leaving it on all night making a huge racket wasn't my idea of fungoing from your other post in GD, that was quick

De-clogging my desktop and freeing it from its server role is probably one of the most satisfying upgrades I've ever done.
Well like I said, I was working on that one
No problem lee, just give me a shout any time. Planning another update this weekend as I have nothing else on. Should get some photos of my server and desktop at least.
Just spotted this in your sig, thanks for posting! Any updates yet?
I keep meaning to get back in here and do a bunch of updates.
Also realised that the Hexus hosted images are only available when you are logged in, so it's pretty useless linking to it from my other forum sigs. I need to change that and move all the images to my own host.
I think I'm going to merge a few sections to give room for my car stuff as well as camera and video gear too
Been following this.
Would be good to ssee some pictures.
Quick question though, if you don't mind.
Is your server just streaming music, movies etc/ sharing files around your network or does it do other stuff also?
It just seems like a hell of a lot of space..unless of course you have a hell of a lot of music and other stuff, in which case it would be unserstandable.
If only I had the space and money <3
It didn't fall off, it merely became insufficient at it's purpose and got a bit droopy...
Hey, I think you've added the pics of your white ikea shelves since I was last in here - they look very familiar
We've got them in the kitchen though: never thought about using some on my desk. I'll be re-doing the network shortly so I might have to think about those...
It is mainly just a large file store for general storage and streaming to any clients. However it does also do all the TV recording and management of the EPG for MediaPortal.
I have also used it for transcoding at times as there is a lovely quad code processor in there that doesn't get taxed all that much.
Heh if I had the space, I would get myself a little server/ PC or whatever and just store all my music on it and stuff that I generally dont need on my main PC.
Ahh well. Brother off to Uni soon, more space for me.
Seriously though. Can't wait for updates.

That is a serious server! Have you ever stuck a power monitor on it. What does it cost to run all those drives...
I really like the use of the case on its side. Looks a tidy job. My server certainly won't be up to that spec (but then I have one hell of a desktop machine as well
No never stuck a power monitor on it. I'm kind of scared to do that, I don't want to know!! It does keep my study pretty warm though.
It isn't normally on its side, those photos are just from when I was taking shots of the inside. It is a complete nightmare to move, really heavy. It may well end up that way when I move house, who knows.
