1 AP400791A 4U Rackmount chassis (no PSU) 1 MB455SPF 5 drive hot swap bay (in 3x5.25") 5 HAWD7502ABYS WD 750Gb 24x7 RAID 1 GA-MA770T-UD3P Gigabyte AMD770T AM3 motherboard 1 CPAP-965 AMD PhenomII X4 AM2+/3 2 MEK-4G1333D3D4R Kingston 4Gb DDR3/1333 ECC RAM 1 PSS-PSR700 Seasonic 700W PSU 1 VCMS4350-D512H Radeon 4350 PCIe video card 1 FMCFP4G 4Gb CF card 1 n/a CF to IDE adapter Note that I haven't actually built it yet, I don't expect any problems though. I built a much cheaper version (non hot swap) at home using a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H, Athlon II X2 240 2.8GHz, 4Gb DDR2 RAM and 5 1Tb WD drives in an Antec NineHundred case. It boots of a CF card too, but has onboard video and only a 400W PSU (which is probably overkill, steady state draw was ~110W) -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C
