Sweet Mod for your home server?


i found this guide that shows you how to hookup a tiny lil monitor to your pc an embed it in the drive bays of your personal server all you need is a 30$ Intec 5.4 game console screen.

the tutotrial can be found at http://www.cyberpunkcafe.com/news.php?extend.91



i was just wondering if somthing like this could cause instabillty issues?

it seems like a decent soultion. Cheaper than a kvm switch and less bulky too

i was just wondering what other people thoughts were on the subject ?

Looks interesting, I could think of a few uses for a cheap VGA LCD, though putting it into the drive bays would not be one of them...

But why would it cause any instability?

Maybe if it drew a h*ll of a lot of current. That might cause some instability. But I sincerely doubt that a tiny thing like that would draw that much current to cause a PC to be unstable.
