Saturday Morning Madness

Do you ever get tired of looking at a plain computer case??

I was walking through a second-hand store and found Thomasville night stands for $25. So I have a new NAS case for my work room. I thought about removing the drawers but kept them in the end. Each drawer has motherboard, hard-drives and a 200mm fan in the back.

Wow, that is a lot of drives! How many of these drawers do you have filled like this? (or are you just storing your old stuff in them and you really are not using them???) (I don't see any connections to the drives, etc.)

That photo was taken during a rough fit to see if there was enough room for cables. 2 drawers in all.
A lot of drives but not that much storage. New computers at work and I bought the drives after a DOD wipe.

They will get hot crammed together like that.

They do run warm but under the limit, The old drives report 44c, the new green drives report 32c. processor reports 43c. Under 30 and the drive will fail faster, by googles findings.
