Listen , kids thought cows are lilac because of Milka ads , I don ' t think it ' s far fetched that a few pubescent girls got confused . <| sep |> I cant believe bbc is reporting on this . At first i thought it wasnt a big deal at all but im starting to think its going to get bigger <| sep |> my Norco 4020 wont fit my industry standard rack with the Norco rails . The Norco rails that said ball barring are just HDPE grease slides , though they are intended for this case , they are useless . How hard you have to pull on them to get such a heavy server to move is fucking absurd . Norco uses the cheapest possible fans you can find and the wiring was pinched shorting out on the case . The connectors do not lock to each other and pop open with any force on them . The fans are all screwed in place , no hotswap fans and other components have to be removed to remove a fan from at times . they do not have support for industry standard hot swappable psu ' s . The backplanes had globs of flux allover them on two it covered the spring pins on the sff connectors giving me a headache trying to figure out why drives are not seen by my raid cards . After washing the backplanes with iso the connectors still do not work right and if they are moved just a little or in the wrong spot I loose drives . The only reason I was happy with the case is because other then the fans I did not know better when I got it . In the years after I have seen and worked with the more expensive shit and am beside myself , the people who built the Supermicro cases are golden fucking gods of hardware design . I paid around 650 for this Norco case in Canada from the cheapest vendor I could find . had I spent that on a used case I would have got such a better deal and so much better hardware . Half the time you will also get a mobo some ram cpu ' s and so on that are just a part of the server .
