So I'm chillin at home, testing my newly built media streamer. So I tell y Mom to splurge on a water cooling system, and since she won't budge, she won't buy. So today, being as ironic as it is, was 104 degrees outside. I;m in Chicago by the way. So I go to see my server, which is in my usually cool, now 101 degree garage. I check the guage on my comp and do you wanna no the temoerature? 122 degrees! I grabbed my comp, and pulled it inside. I got a special collent that is 65 degrees that is used on pivot motors and sprayed it in. I here a sputter and 2 of my 13 HD's die. Now I have no media center, no money, no water cooler, and no HD's. I'm screwed, give me money. I don't know just wanted to tell my story!

Ok then, if you want to tell your story, tell it at the general forum.

Yeah... I have fans, just box and window fans, all over my computer room in an arch across one side of all my equipment blowing the heat the other way. Works suprisingly well, 10 box fans. Not even internal. Here is a thought for you. Shut your server down on 102 degree days. And unplug it during thunder.

Welcome to The Programming Forum, what is this your 1st post?

Ya, obviously the 102 degree day suggestion is common sense but I'll try your other method!

It's dealing with computers, not airconditioners......but nice try at trying to sound cool.
