  1. If possible, I'd like to put into the Noteworthy section. Hardware CASE: Corsair 760T PSU: Silverstone ST1500 MB: Asus Rampage IV Black​ CPU: Intel i7 4960X HS: Corsair H110 RAM: 64GB DDR3 @ 2300MHz RAID CARD 1: LSI 9361-8I SSD: Samsung 850pro 240GB SSD HDD 1: ** HDD 2: 6x 3TB Western Digital WD4000FYYZ Software and Configuration: My server/work station runs Windows 10pro. I utilize LSI's onboard firmware to configure all 6 drives in RAID 6. I end up with 14.5TB of actual storage. My array partition is handled by Windows, with a **1TB drive and another 13.5 for storage. Usage: I use the storage for movies, music, photos, and my dev work. I have a media PC that accesses it utilizing VLC over a gigabit network. The 1TB drive is for development of flight simulators. Backup: Planning a backup soon. Additional info: I'm a graphic artist for the flight simulation industry. I work from home, so I don't have access to a real server, per say. My station is setup to run work\game settings at max and render textures when needed. I used an available PCIe slot to add an array for storage. I plan to build a render farm/storage server next with the RAID card I have now. This machine will be converted to that, once I get the Broadwell-E and nVidia's next gen graphics cards. Those two items will be my new dedicated work station. Photo's: ​
  2. ^ It's the reason why our (USA) Ranges, Washers, Fridges, etc run off 240v. It requires less current and safer on the load or wires.
  3. The more volts you have the less current you need to achieve the same power.
  4. In a sense, 240v would be better because the equipment can draw less current.
