Update: now with 30% more gen storage! removed 4 1.5TB drives and a 2TB drive added 6 3TB drives Current drive count: 2x Seagate ST3000DM001 12x Toshiba DT01ACA300 Also, the list seems to have me as using 2012R2, should be 2008R2. ssd isn't mounted properly yet, need to dig up another 5.25" adapter for it... sitting on top of the Cooler Master 4-in-3 for now.

Yes, 16 2GB sticks of old FBDIMMs

This thread might just be the kick in the pants I needed to swap in 3 3TB drives into my server that have been collecting dust since April, but here's the current setup. Hardware CASE: Rosewill Blackhawk Ultra PSU: XFX ProSeries 750W XXX Edition MB: SuperMicro X7DWN+ CPU: 2x Intel Xeon L5420 RAM: 16x2GB Nanya NT2GT72U4NB1BN-3C DDR2 FB-DIMMs (32GB total) RAID CARD: Areca ARC-1680ix-16 w/ 4GB ECC DDR2 DIMM+ Backup battery LAN CARD: 2x Intel PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter SOUND CARD: Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty SSD: SanDisk Extreme 120GB HDD1: 6x 3TB Toshiba DT01ACA300 HDD2: 2x 3TB Seagate ST3000DM001 HDD3: 4x 1.5TB Seagate ST1500DM003 HDD4: 1 2TB Hitachi HDS722020ALA330 Waiting to replace some drives: 3 more Toshiba DT01ACA300 Software and Configuration: This server is running Windows Server 2008 R2 currently with two hardware raid-6 volumes. The 2TB replaced a dying 1.5TB Seagate, thus 500GB is being wasted there. Current total usable capacity to OS is 22.5TB from 32TB worth of drives installed. Usage: System runs Windows Server Update Services and I have all my other windows machines get Windows updates through it and save bandwidth/download times every patch tuesday. Machine also stores all my media (movies, music, TV shows, other videos) as well as other things I download. I tend to keep every version of NVIDIA and AMD video drivers I download, every Java JRE/JDK update, every LibreOffice and OpenOffice I download, etc. Also a large collection of ISOs for various operating systems, etc. Also has installers for various games that were downloaded from download helper apps or DRM free humble bundle purchases. I also have a large collection of software from my brief access to MSDN-AA. The system also runs a Ubuntu Server Guest under Hyper-V which mounts the Windows Server host via NFS for /home and /var/www. Backup: Currently only relying on raid-6 to save me. Have enough blank BD-R disks that I could archive most of my movies/TV shows at some point in the future. Additional info: This machine idles at about 330watts and even with the 3 extra Antec spot coolers temperature alarms will sound if I use this machine for heavy CPU workloads. Fully Buffered DIMMs are horrible power sucking heat generators. Besides the Onboard NICs, I use additional network cards and have this machine connected to a managed switch with a link-aggregation-group as well as dedicated connections for the VM and RAID card. One additional CAT5 cable for the KVM Transceiver. Theres no good reason i have the sound card installed other than the fact the motherboard has no audio and I wanted the case's front panel connectors to actually all be wired up properly.

It seems like this device could work perfectly http://tinyurl.com/clench-to-prone Wireless bluetooth 4.0, and games could even incorporate rumble feedback.

Best part is the signatures on the bottom.

The use of the resolution for things like multitasking and being able to resize the onscreen keyboard to not be as in the way and intrusive might have me sold on the idea of considering a phone without a physical keyboard.
