Hey everyone!
I wanted to share my latest project: a set of 3D-printed mods to improve the Sliger CX4200A. Here’s how it went:
Old Setup
- My old virtualization host was housed in a Rosewill 4U chassis (RSV-L4000U).
- The build was great but too bulky for my current needs.
Why Change?
- I found a Hoffman EWMW482425 26U short-depth rack in perfect condition (thanks to a bit of late-night scavenging).
- I needed something more compact and efficient for the new rack.
New Setup: Sliger CX4200A
- I chose the Sliger CX4200A for its balance of size and E-ATX motherboard compatibility.
- It fits well in the short-depth rack but needed some tweaks.
Challenges and Solutions
1. Rear Exhaust Fans
- Problem: No rear exhaust fan mounts.
- Solution: 3D-printed mounts for two 60mm fans to enhance airflow.
- Printables Link
2. Drive Shelf
- Problem: Limited space for hard drives.
- Solution: 3D-printed shelves to fit more drives and improve cable management.
- Printables Link
3. Breadboard Mount
- Purpose: Mounted breadboards for circuit development. I’m working on a smart GPU cooler and want to try out my firmware in a live build.
- Printables Link
Future Projects
- Planning a 4x Tesla P100 build for use with Ollama.
- The CX4200A can fit all the GPUs, and now I have the rear exhaust fan for more airflow.
