DIY NAS & Hard Drive Cabinet - IKEA Hacking - Drive Cooling and Sound Dampening
Ойын-сауық
I design and build a hard drive cooling and sound dampening cabinet out of IKEA furniture, USB powered cooling fans and 3D printed parts -- putting into practice some of the things I learned from KZread makers. In this video I got to use a hole punch and a metal cutting tool called a nibbler. Does it come out perfectly? No, but I learned a lot and I think it looks pretty darn good.

Me ha encantado este proyecto Fede. No había visto nunca esa herramienta de corte circular!!!
Great tutorial Fede. I’m building a little server with a raspberry pi, and your cabinet gave me some ideas.

Thank you John! I'll definitely keep at it.
You want fore fans pulling in air than pushing out. This causes positive pressure which keeps the dust down.
Definitely inspiring! I have a custom MDF studio desk with all the hard drives, cords and hubs inside its 14cm high enclosed department - all covered with an IKEA table board. Really useful stuff 😁 How well have the dampeners worked for you reducing the HDD vibrations in your cabinet? - Eero

The dampeners were more for reducing sound, rather than physical vibrations -- though they are related. I still hear the drives, but it's soft in the background.

@@FedLearnsToMake that's some improvement then anyway. Thanks for the reply!
thanks for the details! can you (or any1) tell me if the equipment you used is easily available at a metal workshop? I don't have the equipment would be a bit too expensive for me. Or can the guy coming to attach the ikea box to the wall do this? I don't think his drill would be as good as ur Lathe

I don't know for a fact, but I think that a metal workshop would have a nibbler tool or a way of cutting holes in sheet metal.
