I shortened an IKEA HEJNE shelf to create a makeshift cabinet for it and slid it under a desk in the corner. Maintenance access was a pain, but the machine was out of the way and mostly unheard.</ins></div></td></tr>

File services came back in November, and a year later, after some drawn-out indecision on where to source static IP addresses from, I finally brought Internet services back from the temporary environment.</ins></div></td></tr>
