Feel the insanity. I'm not sure how much this setup would cost, but I want one like now.

Wow.

That's like taking a flamethrower, rocket launcher, and a tank to go duck hunting.

 

[DarkElfa]

Yes, but the end result will be feathers everywhere man.

Best analogy ever!

Yes, but the end result will be feathers everywhere man.

That's a by-product of an AWESOME story for later on, though. It just happens

all i gotta say is ME WANT!!!! I barely have 1tb of space on 3 sata drives, & 24 ssd drives that hold 6 tb of space is just n-sane!! me wonders where the fundin came to do such a project.

 

[Stinky Wizzleteats]

6tb/24 =a min of 250g per ssd & even the cheapest ssd I could find were 650+ per drive which comes out to over 15k alone for the drives.

2x qx9775 = 3k
2x hd4870x2 = 1k
skulltrail mb= 600
memory= ~300 per stick
1000w Corsair PSU x2= 450
SFF-8087 x6 = 150
ZALMAN 9500A x2 = 100
Thermaltake armor= 150
Samsung 22" widescreen= 240
didnt say what controller he used so cant price.

That's roughly 21,000usd before mouse/kb & assuming he only used 1 stick of memory [didn't specify in vid], +1000 if he filled it out.

Would be nice to play with, but noway is it worth it, lol

**Note: Yes I have way too much time on my hands.

[Evil-Jester]

[Singularity_0001]

[Erfinjerfin]

Does anyone have an extra $21k that you could give me?

 

[Jeebus]

Oh me! I do!

 

[DarkElfa]

If I hit the lottery its SSD's for everyone.

 

[Dayman]

....wait you guys don't already do this? just me?

 

[OODA Loop]

i like how it can transfer a movie faster than they can drop it (literally)

If I hit the lottery its SSD's for everyone.

[Jeebus]
