OK OK, so this isn't my new computer, but I wish it were.

I don't know anything more than the rest of you at the moment, but I'm trying to find out more, I snagged it off of geffers from PCTT.

Count em, 23 drives!!!!!!!

What would that do?...
Burn 23 cds 23 times as slow?...

like I've said before... I'm functionally illiterate...

cpugeniusmv · July 19th, 2003, 11:05 PM

let me put it a little more clearly....

if all those drives were 200 gigs...

you could store nearly 7 TB of data

THAT IS INSANE!!!!!

It 'd be great if it were for running a large business, otherwise all of that space is unnecessary for a home user.

Is there any way I can expand my comp to be able to hold like 4 HDs? I would rather just add to the ones I have then throw my 80 gig away, then my 120 gig when drives start coming down in price and space on my computer starts becoming more valuable.

i have 4 HDD's

get a RAID card.

How big is your power supply though? It may not be able to handle 4 hd's, some cd roms, and the rest of the computer.

Induna · July 20th, 2003, 01:24 AM

I wonder what power supply is needed for that beast at the top of the page? it's a monster.

isus · July 21st, 2003, 03:52 AM

hot damn... look at all them cables. whoo.

airflow (despite the fans in front of the hard drives) must be a pain in the ass.

on a less positive note tho, this computer would not be able to sit with very long without the side panel off. the fans in front are not balanced (with anything i can see). all those fans up front are just pushing air in with nowhere for it to go... which actually slows down the rate they can move air (pressure inside the case). if there were some beefy fans on the back, it would help alot.

i give it a 3 out of 5.

AuronFFX · July 21st, 2003, 04:23 AM

Maybe its designed to not use a side panel and run as an open case. I personally never leave the panels on my comps as im constantly swapping the hardware

narz · July 21st, 2003, 05:09 AM

All I have to say is thats insane!!!

cpugeniusmv · July 21st, 2003, 11:03 AM

How about some of them?

I've been informed by the guy I got the pic from, that the computer most likely has never run, he got it off a cheezy site with a bunch of strange pictures, and it was probably just set up to look like it could run.
