Compact messy build, using case with handle

[asuka117]

You can see the mess of cables inside……why? Below the graphics card, there is a Toshiba P300HDD, a 9cm fan and a 12cm fan, and a large 4pin power cable that leads out of the chassis……

There's a reason for this

This is compatible with M-atx motherboard, the seller provides a waterproof bag, and a small case with a handle.

It's awesome (besides the capacity) and it fits on the trunk like this

Some people may say: "Why not choose ITX", because I have to pick one or two PCIE cards

"You're crazy! Even with a PCIE slot, there's no extra space at all"

Introducing my DIY Beggar Edition PCIE Docking Station

 

configuration list:

HBA Card: Dell H200e

Box: plastic lunch box

Digital Currency PCIE Extension Cable

Finally, the external storage: an HP LTO6 Ultruim 6250 half-high tape drive, which uses the SFF-8088 interface of the SAS protocol, and I had to use an HBA card (Dell H200e) to switch it.
For work reasons, I also needed another QLOGIC QLE2562 HBA card (Unable to show because the work was borrowed by a colleague for use) with an FC fiber interface, so I built two beggars' docking stations myself.

I took a day off and put it together in just one day, very rushed. So no photos were left in the process, only this finished photo
The post has newer and more crazy DIY equipment, why don't you take a look again?

Can finally say goodbye to the stupid second-hand Dell R730!

Several years I playing games with this rubbish Server, the fan noise was so huge!

The little blue computer at the back is the Jumpserver to access to R730.

Bang bang! HP LTO6 works fine, tape ejects!
