Show your farm

[IronBits]

Because of the HSFs that I use, I don't even notice them.
If you use those 7,000 rpm fans, you could here them next door ;)
Of course if you have children or pets (dogs, cats etc.) then, obviously running caseless like I do is not a choice.

LOL my farm is in the dining room.

But I *SLEEP* in the bedroom, so the noise does not disturb me.

Surely a desk is for sitting at to use the computer and screen?

Ironbits why don't you take things vertically like in a rack then you will take less surface area and be less affected by dust.

If you can't afford a rack, drill holes in the wall and screw your motherboard risers directly into it LOL.

I used to have a PXE booting rack in my bedroom with 2 per shelf, using them 7,000 rpm rigs which eventually drove me nuts.

Here's a close up of what was on each shelf. Note the y-splitter. Thanks to swatkins idea and directions and my brother TeeJay and his eagle eyes who made them up for me. Each one was an XP2600.
I'll get around to dragging that rack back up out of the garage soon.
That's just the way it is currently.
My chair, where I sit in front of a 23" widescreen LCD for all my work and gaming pleasure, is just to the right out of the picture.
All I have to do is turn around and roll two feet.
I only use VNC to manage the pharm.
That 19" LCD is a spare which allows me, when the occasion presents itself, to physically bang on them with that KVM under the monitor.
I think that rack would look great up against the window tho, don't you?

LOL I never thought of using duct tape like that!

You can also get it in say yellow and black stripes, or written on like "police crime scene do not cross" or "biohazard: dispose by incineration only".

Must admit, I'd feel safer with screws and rawlplugs in holes.

Imagine if one slowly came away and dropped on your head.

THAT is one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time.

Welcome to my living room.

Nothing special here, just 10 P4s doing what they do 24/7/365.
