This video is about building a 1U server for use in home network or audio visual setup such as a home theater cabinet.
I build the biggest, most powerful 1U server that I can fit into a 19" rack that is only 12 inches deep.
On this server I am running VMware ESXi. This allows me to virtualize Homeseer, Plex, Observium, and some other boxes and have them in an HA failover cluster.
