Cooling an understairs cupboard...Node 0!

["noel_pilot" <HA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I've achieved my goal of having all my boxes (not many so far, amp,
xbox, pc, backup NAS, IR control) hidden away in my understairs cupboard.

Cables routed nicely through the wall using brush bristle face plates,
only problem is the temperature/lack of ventilation in there, two
thirds of the way through a film the other night the pc went into a
loop restarting, that was the point I realised having the door shut is
a VERY bad idea!

So.....key item is the pc, it's a bog standard Mesh case from about 5
years ago with an AMD XP 2Ghz processor in, good few years old now,
four sata hard drives and one ide drive in there.  Standard fans all
round.

So....whats the best route to go, was intrigued by the look of this

put that into the wall, outlet
would then be to the left of the sofa, only concern is the 41dba which
is I think louder than my projector so gonna be pretty loud, assuming
I need an in and an out so was thinking of some kind of louvred grille
in the door to the cupboard and then an extractor fan out of the side,
want all ins and outs to be near floor level for aesthetic reasons.

Ideal solution is I'd move to a proper NAS for all storage to remove
the issue but thats not an option on cost grounds for the moment.

So....any other advice, would a fan like this do the job? or is it
silly to think I can leave the door shut at any point in the future?

Thanks
