The Robot is a large computer that I use for distance trail mapping. As it is a piece of equipment that I use in volunteerism, it's a part of this log.
I have three monitor computer system. I have a VGA one as a document monitor, the other two are on a DVI "Y" cable. If I plug in one of the monitors with the other one on, I'll get lines in the one that's already powered on. To get rid of them, I just have to power the second DVI monitor on, and then maybe off for the lines to go away.

8 - 120mm computer chassis fans for The Robot were purchased from Micro Center in Mayfield Heights of Cuyahoga County. That's about 1 shy from the total number of 120mm fans that it has installed. Between all of fans and six mounted drives, I have to use zip ties to route all the wires away from the fans. It's quite complicated in there and I might have to re-route everything again?
Right now, one or two of the fans is making a lot of noise when the computer starts, but it eventually subsides if the computer stays powered on long enough. It's a matter of time before it fails. And I can't tell which one it is without unplugging all of them, then replugging them in one by one and powering up the computer each time. But I am pretty sure that the CPU and power supply unit (PCU) fans are OK.
