Hey People: I'm planning on a case mod soon but i hit a liitle nail my budget is under 3000$ but I want to use a 600 Watt power supply for two computer. One will use under normal use and will have a Raid 0 for 4 500 GB hard drive *yes i'm a storge freak* and the secong one will just have a good sound quality and a 256 graphic card and last a 80 GB nothing more. a eectrican scematics, a wiring mechanism or a detail DIY wiring. tell me if u get confused
If you've got the space 2 PSU's with lesser power will work better, especially because of the 20P 24P connector. And if you go for 2 PSU's and haven't got the case yet a Coolmaster Stacker St01 would be a nice, cause it supports dual PSU.
Yeah, dual-PSU sounds so much better tbh. You can have them starting at the same time if needed or on independantly. As for storage, why use raid-0? If one drive dies you lose ALL you data. Raid 5 would be best tbh. Or raid 10 even. Anyways, good luck with it.
yea i'm using raid 5 made a mistake researching but the reson why i'm using one power supply cuse i have limited space the most that will take is 2 mobos. second heat is the problem since there's little space but i fixed most of them using liquid cooling but another heat factor is the hard drive. and i'm using arcrylic it's a case mod
also forgot to add it's like the thermaltake mozart. there's two factor that i have i'm going to attach to mobos. just like the mozart but one can usea socket but the other mobo is a mini-itx but i'm going to use two socket 754 and when you put the mozart on it's side cut that in half nd stack it on to the top that is the closet visual i don't kno yet one half will house the UPS, Speaker, keyboard, Softwares, Router... speaker's are not that heavy but for safty purposes will be reinforced
even IF you have 2 mobos that use the same power plugs, and find a y-splitter or make your own, you still have the problem of the fact that ATX standard does not Share PSUs. what happens when one system hard reboots and the other doesn't? whoops. what happens when you want to reboot/power down one system? you cant. get a pair of surplus uATX or something. this is a good example
yea the problem is the space the radiator takes too muchspace cause it is going to cool 2 cpu,GPU, N. and S. bridge.
Use the edit button please. And you could use the uATX supply. Since the other mob is an ITX, what are the specs, could run it using one of those picoPSUs. linkey
