    Hardware
    CASE: Norcotek RPC4220
    PSU: Corsair HX850
    MB: Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3
    CPU: AMD Phenom II 965
    HS: Stock AMD heatsink
    RAM: 16GB DDR3 1333
    RAID CARD 1: IBM M1015, Flashed with "IT" firmware
    RAID CARD 2: HPT Rocket Raid 2680
    SSD: Crucial C300 120GB SSD
    HDD 1: 9x 2TB Seagete ST2000DM001
    HDD 2: 5x 2TB Hitachi HDS5C3020ALA632
    HDD 3: 2x 2TB Seagate ST32000542AS
    HDD 4: 4x 4TB Seagete ST4000DM000
    Software and Configuration:
    My server is running windows server 2008R2 and im using FlexRAID to make my array.
    My main array consists of 15 2TB and 4 4TB drives in RAID 6, so I end up with 34.5TB actual storage space on that array.
    The remaining drives are used as iSCSI target's and one 2TB drive is for active torrents and usenet download's /uploads.
    Usage:
    I use the storage for movies and series, i have media players around the house that access it.
    Its also for backing up my computers.
    Backup:
    The is arrays backed up to LiveDrive, this is a online cloud backup service. (i have 100/100 Mbps connection)
    Additional info:
    I'm using the AMD processor because it was a leftover from my previous server, i will upgrade it eventually because of its high power consumption.
    Photo's:

    Drives as listed in Disk Management.

    Drives as listen on Computer.

    My Rack, in the basement, right next to our water main, and the main power line... SAFETY FIRST!!! :D :D (The bottom 4 HP servers are not in use)
    I have since added a second super-micro server on the top as a backup router.

    If you have any questions or ways that I can improve the layout, please let me know.
     
    NOTE: The DHCP & DNS server is only used for testing. I don't use it on a day to day basis. However I might plan to add some Active Dir services later on, I would then start to use it.

    This thread is meant to show us your network layout.
     
    Some rules
    You must have a proper network diagram; Something made in Microsoft Visio, Gliffy (Free) or something similar. No all-in-one boxes; There is not much to show off if your network only has 1 networking device. It must be your own network; Don't try to impress by showing off a corporate network, we are looking for consumer networks  
     
     
    I will start off with showing my home network
     

     
    Networks
    0.x (Green, 0.0.0.0/0): This is the network directly from the modem, unfiltered. Settopboxes are set on a VLAN so they can communicate with my ISPs interactive services. 1.x (Blue, 172.16.0.0/12): This is our main network, all normal clients are connected via WiFi or on switch 1.2 and 1.3. 2.x (Orange, 192.168.0.0/16): This is our public network, everyone can connect to our public hotspot, but can't access our main network.  
    Switches
    0.1: TP-Link TL-SG3424 1.1: TP-Link TL-SG3424 1.2: TP-Link TL-SG2424 1.3: TP-Link TL-SG3210 2.1: TP-Link TL-SG3424 Gateways
    1.1: Ubiquiti EdgeRouter ER-8, this one also does the DHCP for 1.x 2.1: Embedded system based on a APU1C4 running PFSense DHCP
    2.1: Embedded system based on a APU1C4 running PFSense DNS
    1.1: Supermicro server running Windows Server 2012R2 1.2: Supermicro server running Windows Server 2012R2 2.1: Embedded system based on a APU1C4 running PFSense 2.2: Embedded system based on a APU1C4 running PFSense Portal
    2.1: Supermicro server running Windows Server 2012R2 and acting as portal for our hotspot Access points
    1.1: Ubiquiti UniFi AP AC 1.2: Ubiquiti UniFi AP LR 1.3: Ubiquiti UniFi AP 2.1: Ubiquiti UniFi AP LR Servers:
    1.1: Custom server running Minecraft with dedicated IP 1.2: ESXi running multiple VM's 1.3: Custom server running Windows Server 2012R2 and acting as a NAS
