Server Upgrade

Back in October, I posted a picture ( https://365project.org/batfish/365/2018-10-15) of a new case I picked up for my basement media server system.

Now, I've decided the computer in that case, and the OS it's running, is too old, and it's got to go.

I'm not wasting that new case I just bought though, I'm moving the contents of this brand new (to me) used mini computer into it.

The mini computer doesn't have room for the drives I store my media on, and it's power supply is kind of crap, but moving it's system board, CPU, and RAM into the that case I bought for the old server and re-using my old media hard drive should work out nicely.

Today, I got a fresh OS install setup on a spare hard drive on the new hardware. Next, I've got to back up some configurations on the old server before I tear it down and build the new system in it's place. That should keep me busy tomorrow....
Wow you are very good at computer stuff! Where is grey man? Doesn't he assist any longer .... I somehow seem to have lost touch during a very busy period in my life

You are the ultimate recycler methinks!

Waste not want not - you always have project or projects on the go. Lovely colour shot

The lighting gives this a sci-fi look.
