I decided to go with a Casetronic C138, I'm still waiting for my board to come in but I'll try to update this thread and post some relevant bits when I start building.
I'm still interested in case ideas for this board. I think I might be able to find that iStar Storm case that someone linked above but I'm curious what other ppl have come up with.
My fav little Ma&Pa shop just started listing the d201gly2 (finally) so I'm now seriously looking at casing options etc.... Looking forward to seeing what you come up with mooose
BWT I've seen a number of posts on other forums etc suggesting that the tall heatsink is easily replaceable.
Hey steelh,
1) Great glad to hear that you did check this.
2) Yes if you didn't buy it separately then you're probably using the integrated NIC.
3) To see if you have an IP address goto a command prompt and type "ipconfig" and hit enter. You should then see some output like:
The bold part...
Did you check your cables?
Are you using the Integrated NIC?
Do you have an IP address? (can you ping anything? can you access any site by IP instead of by name [ie: 64.233.167.147 for google]?)
I'm with nerp on this one. Personally I believe there are two rules.
1) Decide what you want and ignore the price/performance argument(s).
2) Buyer beware, do your research before making the purchase (in this case storagereview.com [or similar] and some postings here would have saved you...
Because none of the other boards are $80 or less.
I'm definitely open to something smaller. The only things I've seen so far are really fuggly, don't include a PSU, require changing the heatsink, or are horribly overpriced.
I really need case ideas for this board. The one I linked above is only getting kinda "so so" reviews (especially it's PSU). I'd like to stay with the stock HS (since that makes the build easiest).
I've read stories and posts of other people installing Ubuntu and other *nixes on it. The only bad thing I've heard about it is that it doesn't have very good support for Standby mode (but it was unclear whether this was a design issue or a BIOS/Driver issue).
Ok I have a kinda noob'ish question. If I buy something like:
http://www.ncix.com/products/i...420&manufacture=Apevia
Which has a 420W PSU does that imply it's drawing 420W all the time or that the max it can provide is 420? Is there such a thing as under-loading a modern PSU? (ie: If I only...
Anyone know any good sources for SFF PSUs?
I'm thinking of getting the d201gly2 from logic supply but the PicoPSUs are $39 and the accompanying power bricks are about $28. I can almost live with $39 for the PicoPSU but adding the brick on top seems like a rip off.
In pic1 it looks like your HD cable is backwards. Isn't pin 1 (where the red stripe should be) beside the power connector? (It usually is).
Why were the HD & RAM removed in the first place?
Is the heatsink properly seated? How is the CPU fan running (seem fast as expected)? Are you sure...
Have you tried booting with the HD disconnected? Obviously that would only get you so far but if you boot and get "No boot device found" or similar then at least you've ruled out mobo and RAM and ID'd the HD as the culprit.
Amber I'm not sure if that PDF is the same model of drives or not. Either way what I posted was just an exemplar, you'd have to find out exactly what's in your system and check the docs.
If you find conflicting information then you have three options:
1) Call the manufacturer and get a...
Just lookup the datasheet on the manufacturer's website.
For Example Seagate barracuda 7200.9 (http://www.seagate.com/docs/pd..._barracuda_7200_9.pdf) states the following:
Operating Temp: 0 to 60 C (That's 32 to 140F)
Non-Operating Temp: -40 to 70 C (That's -40 to 158F)
I agree with heyheybooboo, if it's possible to setup a small farm for the analysis you might be further ahead in the long run. Especially if this analysis system is only partially product (ie: no on-site same day support). If a single node in a small farm goes down at least you can still...
This could be true however how important will the machine be once it's in production and being used for these analyses? If you put it together yourself you may save a few grand but if it ends up down for a week or more while you try to fix/replace something down the road is that going to cost...

1) Have you tried booting in Safemode? Have you ever enabled and checked the bootlog?
2) As a diagnostic test why don't you boot from a LiveCD? That would take your HD out of the equation.

DBAN is a good way to go. It's compliant with various Gov't requirements for overwriting data on drives.

Intel finally has the D201GLY2 listed on their site:

Well 127.0.0.1 is a logical loopback built into the OS.

32bits is enough to address 4GB. If you're seeing < 4GB something is wrong (IMHO).
Edit: Hmmmm I wonder if this has anything to do with your use of ReadyBoost.....that might be worth researching.
Edit2: I was having a slow morning and this was bothering me. Looks like MS did some funny stuff...
