The Crashproof File Server	Ready for Battle

The Crashproof File Server
Well, it was made of aluminum and steel. I got through the aluminum with some pneumatic nippers. That wouldn’t have worked for the steel, so we used an oxyacetylene cutting torch. All in all, it only took an afternoon or two to cut all the holes I needed.

As for it being indestructible, it is supposed to be able to survive the impact of an airplane crash, but that doesn’t mean it will still function afterwards. Also, it can survive the heat of a fire for only so long. As a result, the recording medium is inside the steel compartment. The rest of the box is really expendable.

That is a pretty sweet mod. I have a question though, how long did it take for you to cut through that thing? Aren’t black-boxes supposed to be somewhat indestructible, or am I mistaking.
The Crashproof File Server
Right, but I needed something Mini-ITX or smaller, or else it wouldn’t have fit. Plus, this was a mobo/processor combo.

You can get a good mobo on newegg that has a 775 socket for under $125
