    1u supermicro server chasis & dual MB Tyan

    Hi,

    I purchased  this 1u server case, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811152128
    (has redundant 650w ps)

    And this mobo for it, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813151196

    I have two problems, I am not sure if I can resolve with these two

    1./ the Power Supply mobo cord doesn't reach the socket for about two inches,
    i guess I can fix this with some prolonger,

    2./ the  mobo has two CPU power sockets, but the power source provides only one,

    Does anybody now if with a splitter there will be enough power to power two 95w intel quad processors?

    OR

    Any recommendation on a 1u chassis for the Tyan mobo? I need to fit 8 2.5 disks, or 4 3.5
    and power two quad xeons and 18 dimms with 4gb each (72gb)

    Thank you,

    Prolonger?  Big Smile   You mean extension?

    You don't use a splitter for these, you must use an adapter..

    Can't help you with a 1u chassis, can't say I've ever bought one.. Might try googling some reviews..


    Onboard RAID vs. 3Ware RAID

    I never recommend people run RAID-5 with onboard chipsets.

    right, prolonger as in extension,

    Prolonger Pro*long"er, n.
     One who, or that which, causes an extension in time or space.

    thanks, but there's no place to plug the adapter,
