Powering up a Supermicro Storage Server video by MAFRI

Just the boot up from my first Storage Server.
It's a Supermicro one.
Based on the X7BSE with a Xeon Dual Core 775 3Ghz and 8GB DDR2 ECC.
Disk space total are 12TB. 8x 1,5TB Seagate at RAID6 on an Adaptec 5805.
A single 750GB S-ATA disk is used for the OS.
The 2 onboard NICs and the Intel Server PCIe X1 NIC are running together in SLA mode with a transfer rate of 3Gb.

Sounds like mini-Boeing. I'm almost sure this little monster can fly. 8-)

I thought my AMD server was loud! The E350 has a nice hum

12 drive raid right? I've bought two 2216 opteron processors, 8 gigs ram ddr2 pc5300. I want to install linux mint on it. Anyway, I have so far spent $1000 without buying winblows server 2008 r2 or anything like that. it looks like I'm going to spend quite a bit more to buy the empty rack. but previously I was going to sell it for $1500, now I'm thinking as customizable as this thing is, I should sell it no less then 2 grand the effort I'm putting into it. well maybe I'm over shooting it.

lol that really does sound like a boeing. I have this problem I bought a super micro h8qme-2 motherboard, and just realized I bought the wrong tower. it's dimensions are 13"x16". I don't think it will fit in any tower enclosure. However, these emtpy racks are like $600!!! CMON! I know my board can fit 32 gigs ram, etc. etc. I have so far bought two sata hard drives, one 1terabyte, another 250 gigs. pretty decent file size storage ability, but that's just so far, yeah these things can perform

WTF. That thing is more louder than the corn factories I live near by!
