Despite being a heavy computer user I'm positively struggling to fill 1TB even after 2 years of hoarding HD rips, so I'd love to know what you use 62TB for. Also wondering about idle power consumption.


bah, formatting error. 6 times 2TB not 62TB. Everything runs of an atom card, with modded cooling for the bridge and cpu (fan less, really awesome, copper heat sinks). The discs are the WD Caviar Green, low power, and they are attached with rubber to silence them. There are two (90 cm) slow spinning fans in front of the disks, one in the quitet zalman psu (120 cm) and one (90 cm) at the back. I built it in an htpc chassis.
