CPU and RAM were from my old rig, they total about $300 when bought. Can be had for about $220 now
Case, PSU and Mobo = $115 shipped on the Egg
1TB drives = Bought throughout price drops ~$800
500GB = bought back when they were $179 each (we won't count these)

So without drives $350-400. Drives are a bulk of the cost
Still with $350-400 that's a hell of a server for anything else.

Took out 2 500GB for now, and going to add 3 more 1TB ASAP.
Glad you were interested.

While this case is cheap, I would recommend it for anyone looking for something small for any server on a budget (especially a nice small file server ). 2x 92mm Panaflos and the CM drive bay keep everything nice and cool... Even while SMP folding 24/7.


Oh, and if you are interested in pics I'll gladly send them

Edit: FYI, I'm no modder (I lack the creativity for that). This is just a build that I did that I haven't seen anyone have yet. It is surprisingly small... yet large. As Smasher said, it's what's on the inside that matters

By the way, I really like this build of yours. I dunno. Its not special, but its appealing.

Especially appealing to someone who has a CM Stacker T01 housing his server....lol

A buddy of mine houses his server in a Stacker as well. It's just way too big for my tastes. I came from the CM 690 which is even smaller than the stacker, and this one is just sooo small. Not to mention it can hold about 11 drives maximum.

It even makes my Mini P180 look big

The 5TB's are in RAID5 on a PERC 5/i. 2 of the 500's were in RAID1, which I just took out to use for my new rig.

I liked the RAID1 for security on my important stuff, but I needed to make room for 3 more TBs.

Very nice. How'd you get those sata power cables? I'm very interested in those, cuz I also have a lot of drives in my case and considering how inflexible these corsair cables are I'm scared they're gonna break the power connectors on my drives >_>
