Finally. Blimey its heavy, 30Kg on the scales. Now to find where I put my bloomin memory stick with Ubuntu installer. More pictures to follow.
It is ready built. Just came in 3 boxes for protection I guess. Couldnt find my memory stick so using my camera's SD card with an adapter. Going to test it for a week and will then transplat my current server hardware: 1 x 3ware 9650SE 12 lane raid card 6 x 2TB HDD's in raid 5 (9TB total) 1 x TBS6284 (PCI-E quad DVB-T2 tuner card) For now installing on a 150GB WD Raptor.
More pictures: Nice and neat inside. If I built it, it would be messy. Just need to remove the 3 x 5 1/4" drive bays and insert my ICY-Box 5 in 3 SATA Hot Swap Bay, but can do that next weekend if I dont get time.
Can you try resizing pics before you upload them? The page loads really slowly with oversize pics, and they are perfectly good for viewing at the smaller size the site shows. Other than that, it looks good. Should see you high on the daily producers list soon
Yeah will reduce em in size and I have moved them to my ISP's web space. Silly me put em on my server and I only have 1Mbps upload.
Looking good, planning on turning off the other machines soon I take it? Its quite funny looking at the stats and seeing the massive list of processor cores Interested to see how this rig compares to the dual SB-E Xeon rig that Slowlemon is doing.
Yeah I'll eventually run the others as and when the computers are used instead of 24/7. Until next week the i7-2600k will remain on, until it falls over, as that is still my media server. I have yet to install the kraken.
Hmmm that's an odd one, never happened to me, Did you use the guide on the (H) forum? Sent from my BlackBerry 8520 using Tapatalk
Yeah I followed it. Rebooted the machine and now it wont start up. Getting 5 short beeps and 1 long beep continuously. Possibly memory problem!
Just pop the side off and re-seat the DIMM's - I had a similar problem that was easily rectified this way. (Which version of FAH did you install - I think the 'standard' Kraken is for v6.34)
Heart failure over. Bit of a pain to remove all memory and reseat, but done and now its up and running. I am using v6.34 fah as I wasnt happy to use v7. Well now to turn it off and put the air shroud back on. Lol what a flimsy bit of plastic it is. No wonder it was £9.
1st wu finished and now onto next. I did uninstall the kraken, but when I started it up yesterday the load balancing message still came up and my TPF is lower than what it was originally too.
I'm using The Kraken 0.7-pre15 which works perfectly on my 4P. It is definitely worth persevering with this program
It might not have been the program at fault. I did have to reseat all the memory to clear a BIOS beep on memory failure.
