My friend who worked as admin for hosting company got very sick and still has chronic cough after working in server room with UPS and car battery. So it must the the outgassing fumes of car battery that got him sick. If anyone attempts this them YOU MUST USE SEALED CARD BATTERY, do not use regular battery that you can add water to.

Building my server with Intel 1220L 20W tdp supermicro x9scl+-f 6 WD GREEN HDD 8GB RAM Define mini case The PSU mentioned SeaSonic X series SS-400FL 400W is very nice, but my power draw will be around 80+24x6=230W and since this PSU is not Platinum power efficiency will not be 90%, more like 88% at idle, very bad if you ask me. So perhaps there is better PSU? How could intel make MAJOR screw up by releasing nice Xeon low power CPU's but forgot about PSU? They should make PSU's too, as how can you make power efficient server without power efficient PSU? And I can say the same for AMD, nice move on E-350 18W but hey, you must use picoPSU and it's not very nice as you will be depending on you power brick to do what seasonic does with 2x more components. And I know that Titianium PSU is what I need, they are at 20% load as efficient as Gold is at 50%. But how come nobody makes them?
