Redneck Server Farm

Well next time I need to upgrade White Trash Repair’s servers we might just have to give this Bubba a call!

Frankenven​t!

“So this contraption I call Frankenvent!  Our server count quickly outgrew our cooling capacity and the cost to redesign the correct cooling and racks was beyond our means so I came up with this.  A couple of trips to Home Depot, a couple of large high CFM attic fans, duct fans, duct work, lots of duct tape and its alive!!!  Frankenvent!  It sucks the hot air right off the back of the servers up and out of the server room just adding one of these dropped the room temperature over 5 degrees in less than 30 minutes.  I installed a second Frankenvent and our computer room sits at a cool 69 degrees thanks to some duct tape and red neck ingenuity! :)”
