Just a few more pictures of Pandora's Box 1 now that it is done. Pandora's Box 2 coming soon.
Above, you can just see the side and part of the top of the box. Each side has an 80mm fan - one pulling air in, the other pushing it out. On top, there's fan grilles over the power supply outlets. I had to just cut holes for the power cables to enter.
Here's Pandora's Box's top. Two fan grilles, two ugly holes for power cables.
Here's the final shot inside Pandora's Box 1. On the very top of the picture, you can see a power switch just mounted inside. There's also one on the bottom side of the box, but it's hard to see amongst the other items. Also, you can see the two Airlink Wireless networking cards I installed. Both work flawlessly - so much so that I picked up two more today for $13 each for the two other computers I plan on putting in Pandora's Box 2.
Construction should start soon on that project. I have most of the pieces I need, but just need to do a bit more planning. My two ATX 20 pin power cable splitters are on the way, along with two 20 pin power cable extenders. Should be no problem to reach all four motherboards - though I had planned on having both PSUs mounted on the same side of the box - not sure if that can be done with the current config of the power cables - but I am going to try. I also bid on two cheap 30 GB hard drives on eBay - hopefully I'll be the high bidder when it ends and I will have most of what I need.
