A while ago I decided to split out my computing needs to achieve my personal Nirvana.
I currently have a Shuttle with around a terabyte of storage. Im looking to build a storage server that I want to put in my garage on a wireless network. Then Last a PVR.
The goal is to have a gaming rig, A PVR and a storage server sharing space.
I currently have my old Lian Li V-2000 case and my 850 watt PC&C power supply
I am trying to be as cost effective in building this out as possible but dont really feel the Lian Li is good for the task.
I have considered a stacker or the rm414 following, problem is I dont really want to dump more cash on another Power supply.

Anyone out there have a storage server setup with 8 or more drives?
Anyone using the stacker as storage?
I currently have
8 300 gig maxtors a few 400 gig WD RE's and have a line on 20 maxtor 250 sata.
A coupel 3 ware 8 port controllers.
Im really just trying to figure out the case setup.
Insights anyone?
