Not really. "Hot" is the word you're looking for. Hot and very loud. I have an old RAID cabinet in the garage. It's about 1m tall, 0.75m deep and 0.2m wide and weighs 60-70kg or more. Contains 7 full height 5.25" SCSI HDs and 4 5.25" half height double-speed caddy-load CD-ROMs. It needs to be connected to 2 SCSI buses simultaneously to run. When running, it used to hold my home fileserver's 7GB RAID5 array plus the OS boot drive, and it not only put about 4% on my home electricity bill all on its own, it sounded like a Harrier jumpjet hovering outside the flat. It was virtually impossible to hold a phone conversation when it was running. On the upside, I didn't need to heat the flat... -- Liam Proven · http://livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=lproven AOL/AIM/iChat: [EMAIL PROTECTED] · MSN/Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] · Skype: liamproven · ICQ: 73187508 -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
