Hey guys!

Cleaned up the thread a bit, sorted the pics, and added some text and reflections, should make it a bit more understandable

:O amazing

That's a lot of hard drives.

And more to come! ^^ still missing 6 disks from that pic my friend

ye i rkn... jees........ love the res and the hdds man,.... very cool

thx m8, hope it will work decent too

love it, do you have like a endless budget?

Not endless, but its decent, spendt around 11,000$ in total on case with hardware, and no... i dont wanna buy a car instead...

OMG at the HDD racks. The res looks awesome mate, looking very cool. Do you have any support for the HDD's besides the mounting screws? It would be wise to make one, the are both very long, not to mention heavy. Just a bar that they can rest on would do.

Coming up soon, will put a bolts in there too, to hold everything in place... its close to 30kg just in disks, its HEAVY...

Thats one helluva harddrive rack, nice.

thx =)

lol im still shaking my head at how big that is and how much it would of cost...

i will be for a while im sure...

Money is just related to where you tilt them one direction or another 0.o

Everything worth doing is worth overdoing ^^

OMG! That looks so fabulous!

*blush* thx dude =)

I actually meant to write "PSU's" but the HDD's are heavy lol.

Do you have any more pics of the whole computer?
And, god I wish I had thousands to blow on a computer :O

11g..... omg... i have spent like 2500 on mine... and thats with likw 2100 on system and screen

[The boy 4rm oz]

11g is a lot lol, but you have more than one PC running in there tough, don't you? My PC is insured for 5g, if I paid RRP for all my tech when I got it it would be worth around 3.5g (including software). Gotta love that extra headroom lol.

[DonT-FeaR]

lol

yeah i spose 2 systems does double he proce if not triple...

[grevaeg]

Price estimation would be something like this =)

2 nicely specced gaming comps - 3000$ish
22 TB of drives is another 2800$
raid controllers close up to a decent 1800$ too...
4x 24" LCD's - 2000$
plexiglass cost around 100$ a square meter over here - 600$
Watercooling - 600$
Aluminium and other stuff 300$

and thats without the work included =)

[The boy 4rm oz]

That is a lot lol, well worth it though.
