installed the patch, but it gave some vague confirmation about download being completed after the flash.

Thnas MikeC.

was looking at this 19v, 120w adapter: PW-19V6A3

I believe its an FPS brick, and the same one rated favorably by johnnyguru.

helping a friend build a Vail box.

160watt Pico
6x 2TB Samsung F4s
Supermicro m-ITX (Atom D510 1.66Ghz)
2x 2Gb SO-DIMM

That's it.

Anyone running simialr configuartion with similar sized Pico?

I'm thinking it should be enough, and as its juts a filer server.

Thanks for any input.

Wow!

incredible work on that Level 11.

You have some serious skills.

getting an SSD and setting up a WHS box for storage and file serving has made a world of difference for me.

very nice!

i've been thinking about moving to a m-ITX board as well for gaming, but 2 things are roadblocks for me...onboard sound and the price of 4Gb sticks.

Shuttle K45 - $110 from eBay (sold all parts inside for $80) Intel D510MO - $70 4GB OCZ DDR2 800 - $50 (used) 2x 2TB Samsung F3 Ecogreen - $110 each 120watt PicoPSU - $75 (used) WHS PP3 - $75 (used) 92mm Nexus Silent All for around $500. Should I have gotten an HP MediaSmart Server instead at the sa...

I can't imagine there would be too many restrictions for CPU cooler.

That thing is wider than a A05, and my A05 clear an Ultima 90 with ease.

M-ATX form factor, and you can have 3X 120mmf and 1x 140mm fan...of and 7 HDs.

nice build.

I'm building a similar toaster NAS.

Shuttle K45
2x 2TB HDs
Pico PSU
92mm Nexus
D510

...and yes, these mITX boards are fun to work with.

josephclemente, IIRC, you had a nice little Shuttle box before right? I think that was one of the builds that brought my attention to Shuttle. So far.... Got the grill 'tinned' out. Smoothened edges with a metal file. Installed rubber grommets. Intel D510MO installed. 4GB DDR2 800 installed. 92mm Ne...

I have the LL case. Its a great case no doubt, and I went for it because if its clean, "plain" look. Actually, They could have ditched the floppy bezel in the front as well. If you want a factory-look top exhasut, you could spend a on this. It really keeps the clean look in-tact. http://www.lian-li....

Setting up an Intel NM10 (mITX) board with 2x 2TB Samsung F3s and WHS. Will be a streaming & file server box. Will use a Nexus 92mm fan for exhaust. I was wondeirng if its even worth removing the grill on a system that generates this little heat and with a fan that quiet/slow. The Atom 510 is passiv...

Here's a good review from Anand.

He's also quoting that the D510MO will be $75

or...if the heatsink readily comes off, you can clean it up the TIM and use some sort of thermal tape to stick it back on.

Looking for an alternative to the EADS, and would prefer 500Gb platters.

Are teh 1Tb EcoGreens all 2-platters by now? Will probably purchase from Newegg.

Thanks!

Ralf,

let us know if you get the EARS drive and what your impressions are.

Thanks!

congrats slippery! great work!

I actually liked Best USA, Mod Creativity, and Mission of all the mods.

Japan looks like your typical "ricer build" nothing really new or original.

http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=36_39&products_id=24970 I was looking at this recently, unfortunately it still only ranges from 900-2000. Why not just use some 1,000RPM fans @ 12v? or is PWM a must on the server? Sycthe has some really decent fans that f...

The EVCS is 16mb cache. Same exact drive as the EVVS.

EVCS has been discontinued I believe.

Its seems to be the same as the EVCS but with more cache.

Having said that, I have had a 1Tb WD10EVCS for over a year inside a TiVO and it is very, very...very quiet indeed.

Where?

1400+ in stock.

scratch that. the drive is widely available now.

I was browsing around and found a couple of early previews that had intially said this board, along with the 410, would actually be closer to the $50 mark than $100.

That would be incredible if it holds true.

Does anyone know how many fan headers this board has? It looks like just 1.

Thanks Eddie!

Actually, I won't need a CPU cooler....nto wit this board.

The EARS are in stock in some retailers already, though holding shipment for offical realease.

Hovering from $90-100.

Good stuff!

Are the ones from Newegg all WD10EADS-00M2B0 now?

after reading this post, I'd rather not take the chance on getting a 500RPM version.

Thanks!
