Ok. Here goes, this summer a friend and I are going to travel through mexico for about a month or two, and live out of his Jeep. He is a photographer, and we plan on having a significant amount of data to store. He has a gig in his camera and he wants to be able to store them on a hardrive. Now without having to buy a laptop, I wanted to make a really inexpensive specialty box, which would just consist of a cheap old mobo, a ps, an old processor, and probably one of my HD. Now here comes the part I need some help on. I want to be able to make this box without having a monitor, since obviously that would be too much space. Is there some way to make something really inexpensive, like possibly a small lcd/led, to display messages indicating succesful downloads of the memory card.
I plan to be running this setup off of an inverter, and building an enclosure within his scrambler. Any help or advice would be really nice. We are pretty poor at the moment so cost is a major consideration.
