    I've been slacking off... bad PY!

    Yeap, as some of you might have seen, I am no longer the Top Dog in Dailies in Rosetta or Dimes or even DPAD. Well, the reason is that there has been alot of changes at work and I will need to re-organize alot of stuff and network around (consolidating two datacenters into one datacenter). All this work has made me lost focus of DC and I couldn't be bothered with checking all those hundreds of clients anymore. Sorry

    But once we are done with all this re-org stuff and me having more time to focus on DC, I shall return to help the Team out in whatever project they need help with.

    The Mighty PY 222 will return shortly after these messages.

    Yeap, the electricity consumed is just tremendous.

    I reckon I have about 20 20amp circuits powering all those puppies on racks. I'll try to show you all my setup when I got some time.

    Pharm porn on the way.

    Very nice PY.. any specs on them boxes (sorry if you have answered this before)? This personal or a business (webhosting or something like that?) Also, what kinda cases are they; I dont see any power cables? Are there any weight limits on 2 post racks?(i'm asking... i have no idea) I worry about putting 1 server on a 2 post rack with no support in the back.. hehe

    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Well, I've got P4 2.8GHz running on them. They are all for business because I sure as hell can't pay for the cooling or power for those puppies.

    Cases are from a company nearby. Don't know if I should post the name but if you are interested, PM me and I'll let you know.

    Yes, definately weight is a problem when dealing with a 2 post telco rack. If you are going to co-lo your 1U box with a provider, do request for a shelve if you know your chassis is heavy. I know Dells are a beast when it comes to weight of chassis. I think they do it on purpose just to make the box feels about the right price you are paying for, if you get what I mean.

    This has been one of my pet theories for years. I get used to moving around systems that I've built, then I have to pick up a Dell and WHOA! Them puppies are heavy! You are, indeed, paying by the pound.

    But Holy Macro, Batman! Them look like some schweet systems. More pix!
