Steve!

At his core, Steve is powered by an Intel Core i7-4790 CPU, repurposed from his dad's old work computer, ensuring that every operation runs with precision. Complementing its processing power is a generous 32GB of DDR3 RAM, pieced together from various old PCs, showcasing Steve's adaptability. Steve's foundation is the MSI Z97 PC Mate motherboard, a nostalgic relic from your first computer, which has stood the test of time. Nestled within a trusty Thermaltake Versa II ATX case, Steve's durability is matched only by its timeless style. With a Noctua NH-D9L cooler, a rare thrift store find, Steve maintains optimal temperatures for seamless performance. This cooler not only ensures that Steve runs efficiently but also does so with the elegance of a silent guardian. Storage is Steve's forte, with nine hard drives hooked up to an HBA sourced from eBay. Among them, two substantial 12TB drives offer ample space for your ever-expanding data needs, while seven reliable 4TB drives make their contributions. Together, they create 40TB of usable storage capacity. Steve is a testament to the power of repurposing and customization, ensuring that your digital realm continues to expand and adapt with your evolving needs.
