What kind of hardware do you have in there?

2 x APC Back-UPS RS 1000va

1 x APC Smart UPS 1000va

1 x "server" with 1TB disk shared with some neighbours with movies, tv series, etc

1 x "server" with 5TB disk where i store my projects, work, hd movies, etc

1 x switch 10/100, for shared neighbours lan

1 x router to connect both networks

1 x switch gbit for my home private lan

1 x hp 1x4 kvm switch

1 x hp rackmount keyboard console

In that picture my domain controler wasn't in the server rack yet.

The 5TB server is connected to my media center in the living room.

I want to replace this 5tb server with a new one with a raid5 controler with 12 to 16 channels.... but for now it's ok :)

i doubt it needs to be fast as he is the only one that does all the downloading and then shares it all :p that way the neighboors dont even need to download anything :p:P

Yep... The neighbours just access the shared server emule trough the webserver, and the .torrent files go trough ftp... then the server downloads the files and places them in the corresponding user folder.

The shared web connection is limited to websurfing, msn, etc.. no downloads like torrents, emule.

edit:

here in portugal, i guess the fastest adsl connection is about 24mb down.... i have 16mb down, no limits.. :s

edit2:

the chieftec rackmountable cases arrive tomorrow... :D

My new screen joins the family. It is an AOC but it was free, so what the hell...

Ugg!! I tried putting my TV next to my monitor, but they were messing each other up!!! WTF??! What's your secret? Is it just because my stuff is a POS?

EDIT:

BTW, Arizona is so awesome!! So is Fallout 3!!! You're so cool!!!!

Well, first off none of them are televisions but they are all LCD displays. Second, I only have one PC dual screen, my 360 hooked to the AOC and my Mac switchable on the center Acer. If that helps at all I wish you luck :).

Speaking from being an owner of it, I personally love the case. It has alot of room which future proofs it for anything you can think of and has excellent ventilation. Running a quad core in the thing and can run Supreme Commander on full settings and the game almost never stops unless I build a bit over 30 nukes and launch them at the same time. No overheating at all :).

    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.

      It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
