I started this last night. Now that there's a break in the action, turning the LNXI cases, Verari/RackSaver nodes, Tivo hard disks, "Hershey Bar" RAM and OEM Windows licenses into the heart of the eight-node version of the Dashcat farm. I have two nodes built as part of a trial right now. I'll be working up an assembly line approach for the rest of them. I've got to pick up a few more cases to cannibalize fans from. It has turned out to be the perfect approach since the fans screw right down and hold tightly with the screws that were used to fasten them to the steel wall inside the case.
I wonder what all eight will sound like when powered up?
Configuration:
Dual AMD Opteron 275 2.2GHz dual-core
3.5GB DDR RAM
160GB Seagate hard disk from a DVR.
