my server


not everyone can justify the cost of running a server 24/7 but i certainly try to take advantage of what i have. i've tried to see what all it could really do with a single machine, so now it hosts a number of services such as certificate services, domain controller, dhcp server, dns server, file server, and web server. many of these roles are running in VMs inside virtualbox.

here are the specs of the server:

  • case - chieftec bravo ba-01b-b-b full atx tower
  • psu - cooler master silent pro m600 rs-600-amba-d3 600w modular psu
  • motherboard - msi z77a-gd65 lga 1155
  • processor - intel core i5-3330 3.0 ghz (3.2 ghz turbo)
  • ram - 4 x 8gb g.skill ripjaws z series ddr3 1600 (pc3 12800)
  • hard drives - 2 x ocz agility 3 180gb (raid 1), 5 x hitachi 1tb (raid 5)
  • video - intel hd graphics 2500
  • operating system - debian squeeze amd64
  • ups - apc back-ups xs 1300va lcd
