Question two keystone jacks back to back

Isn't that just how the wires are connected? 90 degree. 180 degree. In the end don't they all come out the back? Maybe I'm looking at it wrong.

Question two keystone jacks back to back

Been searching but can't find the answer. I have a wall between bedrooms (drywall) in my house and whoever put the wall jacks in put them in direct line with each other on both sides of the wall. One room has a PC and the other room is where all the network gear in the second floor connect into...

Wipe upon death

Ok morbid topic however I have a whole rack of servers in my basement running all kinds of stuff in my home. No one but me understands it. Family was wondering if something happened to me what they are supposed to do. My basic answer was turn them all off, call Comcast, and get a cable box...

Resistor to quiet fans

Thanks for the reply ZeroRift. No arguments here. Wish my Precision R5500 held full size drives and all my problems would be easily solved. My current plan is to adapt some BlackNoise 80mm PWM fans to the dell pinout using a home grown adapter so I can eliminate any cutting of fan wires (4...

Resistor to quiet fans

Yeah, I was very hopefully reading some articles about BMC firmware and being able to edit the settings thru hex edit or other means there would be a chance to control it that way. Tools like FreeIPMI were supposed to pull pertinent information however in Windows and Linux it couldn't seem to...

Resistor to quiet fans

Thanks. I'm probably going to try some BlackNoise fans. They are willing to send me some to test with so hopefully that will work out. The three fan concept is an interesting one. May consider that but personally with only a couple hard drives in the system, think two fans in each...

Resistor to quiet fans

It's not a computer case it's a hard drive array case so no memory in it. The fan is an AVC fan. I am only using a few hard drives in the case so not concerned with it overheating. As for being quiet when cool, no it's slowest speed it runs at with nothing in it is heard from a long distance...

Resistor to quiet fans

Darn. None of my existing fans are 4 pin other than some fans out of my Dell Precision rack servers but those are plug in fans so have proprietary connectors on them already I don't want to mess with. Guess I can't try another PWM fan without ordering one to see what happens. I'm assuming the...

Resistor to quiet fans

Thanks, so any recommendation of a physical resistor to use? The way these commercial fan makers resistor adapters look understanding this is only a 3-pin (http://www.amazon.com/Zalman-ZM-RC56.../dp/B0015DA0YM), you have 12V, their adapters make it 7V end of story. Understand though it's...

Resistor to quiet fans

Thank you everyone for your help on this so far. This was great information. Few items and excuse me for verbing this instead of properly quoting people. 1. " take the 5 volt power instead of the 12 volt line". Assuming the fans would spin up on 5V, is one of the four pins 5 volt to...

Resistor to quiet fans

ClockHound, you referring to mounting something outside the case? Not sure if you saw the pic of the MD1200 but nothings fitting "inside" other than an 80mm fan. Unfortunately to the other comment about asking other owners, no one responds to anything in the dell forums. JR

Resistor to quiet fans

Why do these threads always go this way? Anyway, thanks for the "help?" apparently I'm not going to get an answer to what I'm asking about directly. Even though I am not the "employee" per sea, but the owner. But that shouldn't matter to the point of helping with the original inquiry. JR

Resistor to quiet fans

Yes, you are probably right, but let's have me be the first person to try and document it for the world one way or the other. :) Overheating is definitely not a concern for me at this point. If I could get each of these fans to run at 2/3 or 1/2 their current speed would be happy and if it...

Resistor to quiet fans

Yep, exactly something "like" that. Just trying to understand what resistor would be good for this or what would work without burning out. Also saw these earlier: http://www.amazon.com/Speed-Noise-Re...m+fan+resistor but the person I contacted didn't seem to know anything about the...

Resistor to quiet fans

I have a Dell MD1200 Hard Drive case. It has four fans in it. Two in each power supply. Two fans are screwed into each other I guess for increased pressure to pull air from the front of the case. Below is a pic of the back of the case...

Heat without heat sink?

I purchased a new set of components to make up a new system including: q6600 Quad CPU Giga-Byte GA-P35-DS4 motherboard OCZ memory OCZ 700 Gaming Power Supply XFX 8800 graphics Tuniq Tower 120 (lapped) I wanted to make sure the components worked before lapping the processor. I plugged...

Removing Tuniq Plate to Lap?

Yes. I can't confirm this, however I have read two items on the Tuniq, one mentions solder from the heat pipes to the plate, not sure why there would be screws holding it together then, but guess more for strength then. The other that it's not solder but some kind of solder compound, whatever...

Removing Tuniq Plate to Lap?

I will be lapping the CPU as well. Probably the best practice would be to lap both or none at all since then one will be totally flat and the other concave or convex which may end up creating a worse connection between things then if nothing was done at all.

Removing Tuniq Plate to Lap?

I have a Tunic Tower 120 heat sync and am looking to lap it. I noticed the copper plate on the bottom that touches the processor is held in by four screws. Rather than trying to hold this beast while running the base over sandpaper, couldn't the four screws be removed and the copper plate...
