Start your own personal tour around Google’s North Carolina data center by watching the video below and also using Google Street View by clicking here.

 

Update:  Some nice images of Google’s Data Center(s) can also be found here.

    If you scroll around the streetview there’s a Stormtrooper and a mini R2D2 standing in front of one of the racks
