Stuck in Noisy Computer Hell
 

I am locked away in a data center right now rebuilding a SQL server, what fun!

and its gotta be 70 dB in here.. driving me nutz!

How can you hear the computers when your music is playing at 110dB?

Fight for your right to paaaaarty (in the data center)!

Actually, I got a set of Sennheiser headphones on cranked playing Adema and Deadpool right now so I am not hearing anything ;)

water cool EVERYTHING!

Yeah no need for those fancy hoses and waterblocks. Flood the room and when someone ask what your doing tell them *slipn' slide*

Just a thought, is embrionic fluid conductive?

If that's just a thought, what the heck are you thinking???:shrug:

My bet is yes, since it's mostly water and salt.

Fill the whole room. However I was thinking more along the lines of the liquid oxegen that deepsea divers use.

Ahhh hyper oxygenated fluid.

Not a bad idea, except that I think it would probably corrode stuff mighty fast :)

Parts would be obsolete and upgraded before that anyhow.:)

seal the parts with schelack.

and definately no smoking on the job.

I hadn't thought of the oxidation part. I was thinking it would smell better than oil. and you could breath it.

Bah! I WORK in the data center of one of the two biggest hospitals here. 62-65 deg F and nice & noisy.

Tons of PCs and Servers AND the two huge air conditioners :p

I work in the central data center for the entire state. ( 3 floors at 10k Sq ft per floor.)

I dig servers, I dig network gear, but I also dig a nice quiet office :)

I get to have fun in the state data center 2 :) 10 floors - all under ground about another 10floors-- connections to OC-48 backbones up the wazzu- only go in like 1 a month :)- just to check on the floor of server i built- havent had a problem yet!

I'm in this noise 8 hrs a night, 5 days a week. :(

Add the big IBM high speed printer to that as well.

Although it's 1" foam sound insulation on it's outter panels sure makes a difference when you close the door...

I still don't know why they put that big printer INSIDE the main computer room when it kicks out a lot of paper dust. And since they do no preventative maintenance, whenever something fails, it's usually due to a big buildup of dust.. Hmm... I wonder why...:rolleyes:
