Cable Management, Power Use
With the harddrives and SATA raid card arriving yesterday, I spent some time juggling hardware. I pulled my tv card out of my main workstation as well as the 500 GB harddrive I already had. I also swapped in a 750W power supply from the server, putting the 700W power uspply in the server since it will be on a whole lot more, and the computer seems much quieter. I'm not sure if the 750W power supply is quieter, or if its the dust I blew out, or the lower power draw, but the computer seems much quieter. In the server tower I spent some time trying to get the cabling really limited down so that heat buildup wouldn't ruin anything. The case looks pretty clean so far. The motherboard and CPU are waiting in the mailroom for me to pick them up so tonight I should have it fired up and hopefully ready to go.
