Re: Low power, 1U devices

[Stephen Hassard]

Antec has a 1U case, but has only 1 front 5.25 bay. I've found the 
Antec rackmounted cases to be of good quality, and have had good support 
from Antec's technical support.

The latter has a nice case, but only has a single 5.25 bay and their
others have a combination of 3.5 and 5.25 bays.

Alternatively has anyone tried to mod a Symantec VPN box and replaced
its innards with something like a VIA board?

Both ironsystems and bwi look to have potential. As an alternative I
may consider building my own. Can anyone recommend a vendor who sells
a 1U case suited for the VIA boards, with 1-3 front 5.25 bays, and no
power supply?

Low power, 1U devices

I've been reading up on the VIA Epia boards. Supposedly some that were
built by nexcom.com were used at a previous hackathon. Is anyone aware
of a vendor selling one of these boards in a 1U, rackmount enclosure
with 4-8 front mounted ethernet ports; some sort of noiseless/fanless
DC power supply and possibly a 20x2 LCD screen? Nexcom sells what they
call a Nexgate 1041 which is close to what I'm looking for, but would
prefer one of the low power VIA boards instead.

Check out www.ironsystems.com.  I have about 20 1U boxes from them that
use the VIA Epia boards.  

And they pre-install obsd if that matters to you.
