Hello to all

I finally launched, 6 months ago in a project of construction of audio server and I do not regret at all to have but the “Hands in the mud”

it is in a Streacom Alpha 9 Silver case based on a set of distributed heatpipes for the CPU

  • CM MSI MAG B460M Bazooka
  • CPU INTEL 10500 T low power
  • 16 GB of DDR4 Fury Black 2666
  • 2 SSD of Storage of 2 TO San Disk ULTRA 3 D where is stored the music in DSD File and Flac HI RES
  • 1 SSD Samsung 870 EVO of 500 GO where is stored Windows Server 2019, it is nicely lodged on the side on a plate especially manufactured and stuck with double face.
  • the converter DC-ATX HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi was also lodged under the hard disks and stuck also with double face
I integrated 2 PCI cards

  • a JCAT NET FEMTO card
  • a PINK FAUN USB card
the 2 cards are powered by a J92 linear Triple V8 power supply (2 *5V and 1 in 12 Volt) that I had asked Jacques to design for me in a single case (it is quite heavy…)
the third 12 Volt output is used for the CISCP Meraki switch.

the internal cabling was made by the ModDIY site

  • CM, CPU, SSD and HDPLEX converter.
the cherry on the cake is the integration of a switch on and off of the server by radio waves (Remote control), as for a portal …

I just have to optimize W Server 2019 with

  • Process Lasso
  • Audiophile Optimizer

thank you very much
