My God, It’s Full of AVIs!
March 25, 2008 – 9:18 pmYesterday we went on a file storage expedition. We made the trip to Fry’s Electronics and looked at hard drives. They had Maxtor 500 GB SATA hard drives for $89. We bought 2. Also, since I don’t feel like using a keyboard and mouse all day, I got a Streamzap PC Remote. So $240 later we had all the parts needed to finish off our Elisa machine.
I spent the evening setting up the box. I built a RAID0 array, moved the “/home” to the new array, and configured the remote. I still need to adjust the buttons more to my liking, but I the remote works like a charm. The server comes on, boots to the media user and starts Elisa. Its like a media appliance.
Now the fun part comes; loading the server up with media. I have quite a task ahead of me, but man will it be worth it.

You are getting closer and closer to it becoming self aware.
