Those look quite nice. Can someone provide some details on the hardware of petabox v4? The last version I recall hearing much about was the original red boxes.

1) I am interested in the hardware design of the Petabox v4 as well! And if the CAD design is released under a free license, it can then be used by sites that need high-density storage (some of the HPC sites are already looking at the Backblaze design).

2)Also, brewster's pictures are better than the ones available on Wikipedia - would be great if you release your photos under a free license so that others can reuse them!

In the time since I wrote that post, I have learned that the current setup uses commodity off-the-shelf (COTS) cases: SuperMicro CSE-847E26-R1400LPB

I don't know what hardware is in them, however.
