Planning, Planning. . .

October 3, 2004

Ok, after some more discussions and planning, I changed the PSU again to this I’ll still go with the DC to DC converters, but it seems that each converter has a different form factor to fit each type of motherboard. I guess I’ll order the specific one after I choose the motherboards for my cluster.

Besides the PSU issues, I’m going to be getting some older laptop style cdroms. Even though they cannot burn any cds, they use very little power and are much smaller than normal sized cdroms. This is particularly helpful since two of the normal sized ones would just barely fit on an 8×12 inch plate. Plus, I’m hoping to get the two laptop cdroms extremely cheap. Now all I need to look for is some mini-itx motherboards.
