I have built two self assembly 19" cases, simply designed to be a simple as possible, and extremely low cost. Unit One, 2.5RU (ie the same height as a standard PCI card.) 450mm deep. Accepts standard power supply, any ATX board (full, mini, micro). Combos are Std CDROM + Floppy + 6 drives OR up to 10 disk drives without CDROM/Floppy Assembly. No risers. One case fan (included). Unit Two, Same Height as standard ATX power supply 90mm, 2RU, 275mm deep. Accepts micro ATX board only. Accepts Standard ATX power supply. Accepts laptop 1/3high floppy and CDROM (which I can supply if required) $169 for CD, $79 for floppy. Accepts 1/2 high PCI Cards only. No risers Unit Two currently supports 1 x 3.5" DD and 3 x 2.5"DD. Production version will likely be modded to accept 2 x 3.5"DD and 2 x 2.5" DD ========================================================== Removable 19" Rack wings on both. Mounting combinations are: Flush front, recess 50mm, centre pillar mount, or reverse mount, and 50mm recessed reversed. The intention is to place a full shelf underneath the base unit, then I would not have any qualms about 4-5 racked up on top of each other. There is currently no provision for slides, but if someone was desperate..... Henry Ford Colour scheme. NZ$260+GST complete with PSU, wiring assembly pwr/hdd assy, screws. Netforum Special NZ$230+GST. I'll have three units on show at the Waipuna next week if someone wants to look/dicuss. The second small unit was intended to complement Cisco 2600 in a rack, but also be the right size for home stereo with silent PSU and 2.5"DDs, so if you want to buy your own power supply, knock $35 off the price. Further discounts for quantity (ie 4up.) If you want to buy just the metalwork, and make up your own, happy to oblige... Basically I run them as telephone controllers, log servers etc etc, with a Duron 1300, MSI 6787 board with LAN on-board, single drive and CD for approx $700, rack mounted with a 2 year warranty on everything. About 14 day delivery. I'll include a couple of JPEG's later this morning.
