I think it failed at POST over lode on power.

[heartsblood]

@1Administrater Close, but it didn't get that far. The PSU's are independent of each other. The system failed before the PSU tied to the MB was even turned on so POST was never run. But you are right about the over load on power. The secondary PSU blew a fuse.

@heartsblood had a feeling. i so wont to have a rig like that minus the wire nest cas i have a huge move and music library that already i have used up 4Tb of space all on 4 HD and i only have on HD drive slot :(

but i have a solushon to you problem try to run the HD is parolel to decrees resistant or try to finding a power supply with higher amperage to power that beset of HD and her is one additional tip don't tap in to each other power supply or else you wont dezaster aka the blue smoke

@1Administrater That server is a 135TB 4u. That's a bit much for a movie/mp3 collection. I highly recommend one of the Super Micro towers for a home server solution. If you need something in the 10-15TB range, maybe a horizontal loaded 2u. I have gone through several versions of that server now and I don't have any issues at all. Also I always run parallel circuits insofar as the backplanes allow.

@alienhddna Petabyte 10^5



[TomTeneg]

not enough power?

[heartsblood]

@TomTeneg Kind of. The PSU's had enough power but it was distributed unevenly causing the 12v rails to pop their auto amp fuse.

Are the harddrive's staggered to prevent gyroing?

[BobDoleNSatanRmyniGz]

@heartsblood They have 15 bay triple redundant 700watt power supply server chasis for less than 800. Ideal for home use. Pair it with a 3ware/LSI raid card an you have a very functional NAS or iscsi target.

@1Administrater lode ... lol

[NightWolfx03]

That needs alot of power, heck even some of the larger servers that have only 8 scsi drives and 2 processors have 2 ~ 4 power supplies (Some over 700 watts). Depending on your sata drives there, 45 drives are going to need at least 700 watts on a good power supply that can handle that at a continuous load. Not sure how well Enermax PSU's hold up. But I always tell people to oversize on PSU's, oversizing really won't waste power, but it will save your ass in lifespan and during load conditions.

How about an update? I wouldnt mind hearing more about the construction of this system and your day-to-day experience with this pod. I am also wondering about the difficulties of changing failed drives in a non-bay case.

i want to see a builde video

I LVOE IT

BUT WOHOOOOOOO I GOT 64TB HDDS BUT PAY 10 $ AN HOUR TO RUN IT

[1Administrater]

@heartsblood cool but i manly need some thing along the lines of this tipe of case becas i need some thing to holed all my back ups of all my computers that have 2Tb HD in them along with my music and moveys not forgeting an over kill on redundant HD clones for critical legal documents that can not be lost. can you plees tell me whar i can get this case. cas i already have to meany external HD running in RAD5 and one good bump and all the HD are gowning to come crashing down.

[1Administrater]

@heartsblood ps fuses only pop if the amp usige is hier than what it can handal. i know a lot a bowt computers and electrical i have 2Y of computer repair classes along with 1Y of basic electrical engineering and Principal. so i can hopefully help. do the calculation for max amp used by the HD and search for power supply that can handal that lode... or have a delay in boot order for all the HD i think it is in the BIOS settings throw i am not to formiler in how to do a delay HD start up
