Well I have been toting my computer around more and more lately and my current rig weighs about 45lbs. Take into accountant that I only weigh 126lbs and you can see my back was starting to break....hence this project. I wanted a portable computer that was just as/almost as powerful as the rig i have now. All the specs for this rig are listed in my sig. So without further a due heres what we got(let me just say the timestamp in all photos is wrong forgot to change the date on my camera):
The toys:
The victim:
you can see i already managed to scratch the case but no matter i will repaint it soon enough
Heres a size comparison from my old case to the new(the 341 will fit inside the 690 if it werent for drive cages):
First things first I want this to be easily portable so I went to home depot and picked up some things to fab a handle for this project. A simple $5 steel handle some flashing, self taping screws, and some nuts and bolts and we were ready to go. Heres some photos of the prep work. I really wanted to make it look professional and give it a bit of an industrial look:
And heres what we ended up with(Im satisfied with the results):
