My take on the NSK-3480
Posted: Sat Mar 22, 2014 9:23 am
My 3480 has gone through a few revisions before I've been proud enough to post it here, so here it is:
Specs:
Asus P8B75M LX PLUS
i3-3220
4 gigs of Corsair XMS3
Scythe Big Shiriken Rev. B
Seasonic X-400 Platinum
Intel dual gigabit ethernet card
an Atheros 9280 wireless card
Scythe Kama-Bay
Seagate Barracuda Green 2T
some DVD burner I had lying around
600rpm Scythe fans on the CPU cooler and on the rear.
This is my server, It quietly runs inbetween the rest of my computers and the real world. lol. I BARELY squeezed the optical drive in there, and this is the last of my computers to have one, the rest access this one remotely. The Scythe Kama-Bay is not quiet with drives in it, but is cheap and useful for quick backups. As many with this case here on SPCR have, I drilled holes in it for cable routing. I plan to buy some more longer SATA cables to clean it up. Overall, it is a quiet and reliable, just what I need.
