Yes indeed! Fragglerock is back home and with server in tow 
woohoo!
My trip was awesome, had a great time with my dad... he took me to this island called Put-In Bay which is like Mardi-Gras in Ohio. It was feckin great! Tons of tits and shitloads of alcohol, I'm still feeling the effects of it tonight! We drank hard, Gazebo Lemonades for everyone!!!
Ok enough about that, on to the server! :worship: This fecker is so big I could barely fit it in my car, and it takes 2 people to lift its so god damn heavy.... It's about 125lbs and I had a helluva time getting it up 2 flights of stairs on my own, lol. Note that's the DRY weight before u get all of ur components in to it. I was a bit disgruntled to find that it didn't have the beige front panel or top/left side panels in the box with it when I opened it up. Not a huge deal but it's fugly as shit w/o it. I'm having the guy that I bought it from send me down the stuff that's missing so it won't be so fugged up. Anywho, on to how awesome it is In the front section it's got 6 uber fancy hotswap drive bays which have already been filled with 3 x 9.1gb WD's which came in today, these drives are brand new. I'm also getting 3 x 18.2gb Compaq drives which are used and out of an old Proliant server. The WD's mounted right on up to the hot swap carriers and plug in/out with ease, so nice! Everyone should have hotswap The proccies were a bit of a bitch to install because I didn't realize u had to mod the proccies lockdown tabs to make it fit in the server. You have to take off the c-clip on the lockdown tabs and completely removed them, and then replace them with ones that were provided by Intel with the server. That took me about 30 mins to figure out why the proccies weren't locking in to place *doh!* But got that all figured out and the procs are now installed. Only thing I'm waiting for now to make this bitch operational is my ram which I am hoping will be here soon so I can test this fucker out!
I'll take a few pix so u can see this awesome piece of equipment
