OT: Is that a quad-core in your attic? Or...

[Shawn Badger]

I had an older HP 2U server in the garage with 6 external drives attached to
it for more than 1 1/2 with no problems. I finally retired it just a couple
weeks ago. Previously I have had them in laundry rooms on top of shelves to
minimize the dust bunnies attacking them.
