My Home Server Room

[unifimaster]

dude.. totally organised! cool...

[ComptonCJ]

I was just wondering...what is your electric bill like?

[haguylerman]

What those for

[YTBYlover]

You ever thought about running Folding@Home?

[xRuFFZx]

just why..

[fintarabg]

My future dream!

[drakonn90]

пиздец...

[jeabou]

ridiculous

[GegoXaren]

Monitors and keyboards everywhere...

Why not just use SSH or X11 over SSH?

[nXnetworkify]

why surveilance cameras if you can look outside by yourself

[123chorry]

it is a room

[RevenateStudios]

0:00 Ey-Yo

[cgiusr]

Hey man nice room, how much do u pay monthly for power consumption^^ ?

[julianbell90]

xp as far as the eye can see!

[TheMr8bitmaster]

Compaq vevo y have 3

[cornboy3]

This isn't a server room, this is a home data center

[imolivierbois]

What do you use against fire risk?

[TylertheGeek28]

@imolivierbois that's what the fire department & warranties are for

[crapfig]

total cost of all your equipment?

[Damnyounoob]

holy shit... How much electricity does it consume ? I only have a small desktop pc turned into linux box server. Using it for NAS, apache, linux stuff.

[Rivin2e]

what does this button do =D

[Baraquiel62]

OMG!!! YOU MUST BE RICH!!!!

[bradmottram]

??  what do they all do ??

[AlbertInSanAntonio]

Geez nice job!! very power hungry room

[videoflyguy]

I wish i had as much time on my hands as you do! also, FIREPROOF YOUR HOUSE RIGHT NOW!!! i would hate to see all that progress go up in flames

[TechnicCreations]

Aha! I had a genius idea. Buy a house, put in a data center and rent it out to someone, hopefully it will pay for it's self.

[MovieMad007]

are you making any money from these? renting out webspace?

[GAKtion64]

you remind me of the kid from home alone with those surveillant cameras of yours.

[Tetsuo315]

The bank of boxes on the right as he enters the rack area look like hp DC7600s

[TheCustomBG]

WTF why so much servers why do u need so much for !?

[sbraudrick]

I don't even want to know what your electric bill is. Wow. Hopefully a virtualization project is in your future. :)

[Macintosh3745]

lol i try to keep everything on 1 pc, i have 6 pcs, they are hooked up to my wireless router via ethernet and all my computers back up and stream wirelessly, we use wilife software to handle surveillance, i am thinking about getting ghost. we are getting a streaming doodle for out tv so we can watch our footage from it, i have mapped network drives (on everyones pc) which are well partitioned with just enough space, leaving room for backups and media. we have like the best setup for what we do!

[Macintosh3745]

at 0:00 up the top are they monitors?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Macintosh3745 Laptops

[Macintosh3745]

@Mrthemaxdj1 no no above the laptops

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Macintosh3745 Windows and dell certifications

[gamers5983]

@Macintosh3745 no there laptops with the sceen all the way back.

[MyRandomReviews]

Dude, awesome! Who knows what you use it for but, wow!

How does your internet connection cope?

[TroniPhile]

This is awesome! I like the security camera. Good job with cable management. :P Keep up your collection.

[PablichCrossFire]

What is the Internet connection speed?

[KIAPETE1911]

sooooooooOOOOO MMMmmmmuuucchhh PPORRN!

[BigtimeJimmy21]

It's like NASA lol

[OldSchoolTechGeek]

Do you host? Because I really can't see any reason why one person would use all that.

[ViperTechnologies]

@OldSchoolTechGeek well it could be a hobby thats what i do

[link470]

Consolidate...? I can't help but think that the racks storing your ghost images and files could be moved to one large disk array and save you a lot of resources and power.

[kalitron60609]

Nice setup. My setup could have looked like that if I bought a house first.

[Snoop5856]

WOw witch base you planing to hack

[marselsipod]

so how much is your monthly electrical bill? just wondering

[jsb6jsb12]

i want to run a few computers of my as a server for CS:S but i dont know how or where to find a good tutorial

[krazykizza]

And the power is where? Where is your power plant?

[wasitrealy]

Any idea on what I can use an on AMD Duron 800Mhz, 256MB RAM, 40GB HD for in my room? :P

[Armaangandevia1]

@wasitrealy media computer just upgrade the hard drive and video card and hook it up to a tv and a amp the watch hd movies and tvs shows etc

[link470]

@wasitrealy Solitaire :D

[jsb6jsb12]

is it possible to run a server threw a home computer?

[wasitrealy]

@jsb6jsb12 Of course it is :P.

[Macintosh3745]

@jsb6jsb12 Yes. That is what I have done. I think its clever because you are using the computers you already have instead of spending $2000+ for equipment.

[555russe]

the secret rack is for porns ;D

[killyoulikeapig]

is this haven?

[NateN34]

LOL. Is that a Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem?

[LunaVorax]

That is very impressive ! But how do the other people living in the house are reacting to that ?

That should be very time consuming and very electrical power hungry.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@LunaVorax Dont care how they react, i own the house. Your are right, very time consuming and very electrical power hungry.

[herbatreanunion]

cool room you have a very good collection of machines

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@herbatreanunion Thanks for the nice comments. This is an old video, my new one is.. my home server room updated again

[rockerzac99]

what does the screensaver on the one computer say?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@rockerzac99 I dont know because there is more than 1 computer but i havent heard any of them say anything to me

[OldSchoolTechGeek]

@rockerzac99 It says Windows Server 2003.

[DonatedBus]

what do you do exactly in order to justify this?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@DonatedBus I dont have to justify it to nobody, Its just my hobby

[DonatedBus]

@Mrthemaxdj1 no i didnt mean it like that. i just was like curious if you had a career in web hosting or something. i didnt mean to make it sound like i was mocking you or anything. and i have a question, wouldn't your isp block your connection? would you have to get a permit to have that much bandwidth?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@DonatedBus I do my own web hosting but not as a career. My service provider will sell any bandwith that you want to purschase, its a business package. This video is old and have changed lots of stuff. See my home server room updated again for latest video.

[DonatedBus]

@Mrthemaxdj1 oh that is very impressive! i was looking into webhosting to earn some money on the side and i was always curious if it was even allowed! and i did not intend to offended you with my first comment, if it did. very VERY nice set up. i am very jealous haha

[nuclearthreat545]

Im sure the FBI would love to raid your house

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@nuclearthreat545 They are not going to waste their time, There is nothing illegal in my house.

[ChristRaper666]

Also, you might want to move that fire extinguisher. I'm pretty sure if a fire started in there, it would be hard to get to the BACK of that little enclosed server closet.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@ChristRaper666 It is a 14X14 Under ground cellar not a closet and i have a total of 3 exinguisher for electrical so that is not a problem.

[ChristRaper666]

@Mrthemaxdj1 Yeah, but your rack enclosures in the back make the room and your walkway a lot smaller. Unless that is just an optical illusion from the camera (seen something similar in a Los Angeles server room).

Also, good job on not being another idiot with 1 fire extinguisher (or none) in the house. You honestly have no idea how many times I've seen people not even have a fire extinguisher on hand in or near their property.

[ChristRaper666]

25 security cameras around your house? Jesus...I bet you get to see some pretty funny stuff if you have time to just sit around and watch.

[Simonhp]

is your secret rack full of porn



[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Simonhp It's a secret

[EMCHost]

How much is your power bill for the month? xD

I used to have one HP server, and it added $30 onto my bill D:

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@EMCHost 2000 a year

[samib21]

plenty of mouses living in this room !

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@samib21 Not really I have mouse traps so there arent very many

[nikke626]

@Mrthemaxdj1

Do you want to swap my server room for

yours lol

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@nikke626 I might ,do you have a video of yours? I didnt see one

[nikke626]

@Mrthemaxdj1

no haent uploaded any videos of my servers

[nikke626]

@Mrthemaxdj1

no haent uploaded any videos of my servers

theres not much just 1 rack

full of server

and destops

[technogeek678]

Nice, where did you buy this at?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@technogeek678 Not sure which piece you are talking about but have bought from everywhere over the last 15 -20 years. Mostly Hp. This video is old, might want to check out MY Home Server Room Updated Again video for newest video.

[technogeek678]

@Mrthemaxdj1 I ment, all of it :P

I have been looking for some cheap servers and sadly, I cannot find anything. My price range is about $50 at the most.

Thanks :)

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@technogeek678 Servers cost 2-6000 dollars a piece depending on what you buy. The racks are usually 1500 a piece plus expensive shipping charges, i know because i have been paying for them for a long time and will be in the future for a long time. the price range you are looking at wont even buy a hard drive for a server. save up some more money and wait till you find a sale, thats what i do

[technogeek678]

@Mrthemaxdj1 Thanks :)

(ebay for the win sometimes :P)

if you have space, you should start hosting vpses, good revenue, just an idea though ;)

[Fahne112]

How much Energy are you using in 1 month?

It is really big?

How much traffic do you have?

[hvcool]

WoW thats beyond a hobby - you must have a mansion or a castle to have all that security and configurations

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@hvcool No mansion just want to keep whats mine

[ldoddrell]

@Mrthemaxdj1 I'm the same, I hate throwing stuff away. Because one day, I know I'll think "frak, I need that now".

[1timby]

Dude who's paying the electric bill? LOL

NICE :D

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@1timby The same person that bought it , me

[acidstriker007]

envy...envy...envy... :(

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@mijja0815 I dont need it, I use it for what ever i need it to do

[Ltb0b]

Now thats what I call a basement ^.^

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Ltb0b Thanks for the nice comment

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@mijja0815 This is a old video but i put what i use them for in more info

[MrKillswitch88]

Nice setup and very quiet unlike most so what do you do for redundant power? 

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@MrKillswitch88 Nothing, just battery backup

[ComputerGuy129]

That is one cool Server Room! I wish mine was like that...LOL.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@ComputerGuy129 What are you talking about., You have a wonderful setup and i left comments about it a month or so ago. Yours is very kool. This videi is old and My Home Server room Updated Again is the most recent video of my room now

[legomaniac150]

@Mrthemaxdj1 Ever thought about virtualization of half of those servers?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@legomaniac150 No

[legomaniac150]

@Mrthemaxdj1 why not? You would save money on electrcity bills and everything would be more simple to manage.

[Armornone]

@legomaniac150 What is visualization ? How is that different from just installing multiple servers on a single computer?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Armornone its virtualization and thats what it is what you stated

[Armornone]

@Mrthemaxdj1 No, what I stated was just installing all the stuff you needed on 1 computer. Visualization is when your computer operates like virtual computers on 1 computer box. My question is why spend all the money on a VMware program and just not install all your stuff on 1 computer? Why can't your web server and email server be on the same computer?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Armornone People have been telling me to virtulize and i have been ignoring those comments. I have no reason to put any services together on one machine because i have plenty of machines so each one can handle the service thats needed. If i can afford to buy the machines i can afford the electricity. This video is old and my newest video is actually the one i monitor the coments on. MY HOME SERVER ROOM UPDATED AGAIN

[Macintosh3745]

@Armornone omfg ive been using virtualization for years and you havent even heard of it OMFG

[Armornone]

@Macintosh3745 Sure I have heard of it but I don't understand how its different from installing multiple software applications in a single computer.

[SSchevyLT1]

oh and what kind of carpet is that?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@SSchevyLT1 Its not carpet Its thick rubber matting but does look like carpet in the video i guess.

[SSchevyLT1]

That sound is so calming!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@SSchevyLT1 This video actually has a piece of tape over the mic on the camera

[2notify]

Got a big power bill? Why would you have all of this equipment in your house? Are you also an IT Pro? I thought i was an IT freak but this beats it all.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@2notify If you can afford to buy the equipment you can afford the electricity it takes to run it. Yes i am an computer engineer

[RSSolvers]

Very nice setup I hope to be this enthused in getting my computer room together. For the headquarters.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@RSSolvers Its much more fun when you are doing it for yourself. For headquarters it will just be work i think, but at least your getting paid for it

[TurnerIT]

omg i almost teared up its like seeing god naked

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@TurnerIT Glad you like it, this one is old i have a newer one MY HOME SERVER ROOM UPDATED AGAIN..

[z0mger999]

i want a good computer from you :(

[Armornone]

If his equipment if HP, its worthless crap so don't get too excited. HP=crap.

If he has all this equipment but nothing to run on it, you just described 90% of all I.T departments. All they want is equipment because its just toys for them but they don't want to develop any applications. Waste of money.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Armornone Everyone has an opinion, good or bad

[MrLegendman3]

Is that at your home? IS THAT LEGAL?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@MrLegendman3 Yes, this is not a business.

[Meta4XYZ]

Wow! I thought I had a decent network... Very impressive!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Meta4XYZ Well lets see a video:)

[snapsnapdik]

hey sir,

the setup look out of this world. Is the power bill not extreamly high?

and i want to learn what kind of servers there are and what functions and stuff they have..u know just the basics. do u know any website/forum where i can learn all about it?

nice vid thumbs up :)

[reloadxse]

Hate to see your power bill!

[derSchweiz]

Are those hooked up to a symetrical broadband ISP? How many external IPs you have there?

[bostonballa425]

I wonder what the electric bill looks like! Holy Crap!

[immakinbacon]

Right not im in school getting my associates in information tech. I still live with my parents (now before anyone says anything im 18), im going for my master in information tech. Anyways once i move out im hoping to have a set up similar to this. I already have a decent set up. A computer i made running 3 gforce 9800 gtx oced video cars connected to 2 25in monitors and 4 17in monitors. I have also have a rack with 3 20 amp power strips a cisco 3548 and a cisco 2611. 3x1u servers.

[immakinbacon]

and 3 2u servers. The 1u servers are dual processor athlons, not dual core the have two physical processors and have 4 250gig sata harddrives each. You def have me beat though. Once i get some more change ima pick up a 2621 and a pix firewall. 5 stars for your set up. it is def wickid.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@immakinbacon Show off that rack and your servers so we can all see them. I'll have to have my friend that shot these videos show up close the 7 Ibm X series 1U servers in my rack on the next update if he does one.

[mrjoe583]

@Mrthemaxdj1 He must be single or gay if this is what he puts his heart and money into.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@mrjoe583 Married with children.

[Anubis4815162342]

@mrjoe583 It is called passion dumb ass.

[tabst3r]

I would assume, judging by your physical security, that you utilize a fair amount of cryptography on your systems? I was just wondering how one might manage all of those encryption keys.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@tabst3r NOT!!

[donickco]

MY GOD I THOUGHT I WAS BAD!!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@donickco You still are:)

[80amnesia]

@donickco me tooo

[MrSlushinator]

HOT DAMN!

[Tormentor1985]

Why do you have so many servers? I suggest you order some dual hexacore servers by one of the mayor company's and bring all this down to 1 single rack.

For the rest, nice setup dude but try to keep it green.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Tormentor1985 Ooops to late, Built 4 more new ones!

[Macintosh3745]

@Tormentor1985 i would of thumbed up 100 times for the statement "For the rest, nice setup dude but try to keep it green."

[designwebs]

Is this in your house/basement?

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@designwebs Both

[Hogtd2]

Nice, except you need to get some xserves up in there!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Hogtd2 Is that what you use? I dont know anything about them.

[Macintosh3745]

@Mrthemaxdj1 but you cant get xserves any more get xeon 12-core mac pro :D)

[Kinguto]

WOW, this is amazing, got be like you one day

[jeremiahd23]

but why man, why do u have all this? (fucking mean setup man, nice work)

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@jeremiahd23 You are trying to push me over the edge of a server rack aren't you? Thank you for the comments.

[shanetalbert]

wow man, that is really nice!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@shanetalbert Thank you, its good to hear something good for a change instead of something about electricity bill or virtualizing or someone not believing its in my house or why i have it. Thanks again

[fiendishlyclever]

I'd hate to have your electricity bill!

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@fiendishlyclever Ok, then i wont send it to you but, if you change your mind let me know and i will send it

[youuuu110]

niiiiccee <3 ,a dream *-*

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@youuuu110 Thank you, It takes alot of years of work to buy but just start out one at a time and you can get there if you want to

[Thetrutv]

Noway this cant be a home server room. Im sure its his work place if not then he is probably the ultimate server nerd. No disrespect

[Thetrutv]

The funnyest server room ever :D

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@Thetrutv  OK

[cyberjackcyberjack]

Serveillance only ? what a wase of laptops

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@cyberjackcyberjack No not a waste but almost. i pulled them out of a recycle bin and repaired them so they work

[cyberjackcyberjack]

@Mrthemaxdj1 are all the servers for Work or home ?.

thay look grate.

[Mrthemaxdj1]

@cyberjackcyberjack Just home use :)
