Dual Case Case mod

[ifmu]

Well since my last "case mod" wasnt really a case mod, figured Id post up my current that Im working on.
The idea is for a cube case in effect.
The system
Tyan Tiger 2466 ~ 2 x 1.3 Duron Morgans ~ 256 Megs Corsair ECC Reg Memory
Gainward GeForce2 Ti/450 Primary Video 64m DDR ~ 19" Viewable Monitor ~ Radeon 7000 64m DDR ~ 15" Viewable Monitor
Raidmax 520w Primary PSU ~ Antec 300w Secondary PSU
Hauppauge TV Tuner Card ~ iWill ata66 SideRAID Card ~ Hercules Muse XL Sound Card
10gig 7200rpm Western Digital Hard Drive (OS) ~ 40 gig 7200rpm Western Digital Hard Drive (Storage)
2 x 20 gig 7200rpm Western Digital Hard Drives (More Storage) ~ 13gig 7200rpm IBM Hard Drive (More Storage)
8x32x DVD Rom ~ 12x4x32x Sony CDRW
Keep in mind, case mod isnt quite finished yet, still a work in progress.

On the side panel Im thinking about cutting out the vents that are there. Basiclly cutting it out placing a window into it, and etching XtremeSystems into it. Kinda like in the pic....

Hows who?! heh...

Yea, I imagine that I will buff it our right before it is all put together for the final touch ups. Just wanted to get it up and going so I could get my system up for the time being. (spelling?!)
Right now there are a total of 5 hard drives.
10gig OS Drive
40gig storage for media (i.e. Videos etc etc.. no, not movies! That is what the DVD player is for!!~!!
2x20gig's (Data storage, music, programs etc etc, I like to have immediate access to anything I might use. So including a CDR backup, its all on a HDD.
12gig (part is used for page file at the moment, will be pulling that for more storage later when I get more memory in there.)

What Did You Do with The Second PSU how Did you get it to go without plugging into the mobo?

:confused: thx

[ifmu]

Right now I have it set to a seperate switch on the PSU. So when I need to start the system, I turn it on then start the system.

I am thinking about doing the relay switch mod into it some time, just havent decided yet due to not being able to figure out exactly how its done.

Here are a couple of links that explain that some.
