My Windows Home Server Home-Brew

Hi all! i have had my WHS for about two years now it started off ass just a bunch of spare parts thrown in to a crappy case with just 2x 500GB hard drives

since then every single part of my server has been upgraded
the motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-MA69G-S3H with a AMD Athlon X2 4400+, 2.3GHz with 7x 1TB Samsung HD103UJ Spinpoint F1 hard drives

As you can see i the font fan is only cooling 4 out of the 7 hard drives
so i need to ad more fans to the font of the case

I fabricated a plate to hold an additional 2 fans out of 0.6mm galvanised steel to fit on to the front of the case where the optical drives would normally be
ImageImageImage
Now that the fans where taken care of time to sort out the lack if hard drive space fabricating a new hard rive cage that would hold up to 113 hard dives again out of 0.6 galvanised steel

Thats my WHS for now! i plan on adding more hard drives and maybe a window on the side panel let me know what you guys and gals think!
