Atom + mini-itx + 3.5 inch HD + 5.25 dvd + 600 W psu = 40 watt with prime full load http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/Intel_Atom_Power_Consumption_Preliminary_Tests/5721.html They assume a efficiency of 80%, but looking at the 650W 80+ corsair review, the efficiency is more like 65%. This would result...

LOL, I guess I misunderstood you. Anyway this alternative is more quiet and less sloppy on looks

dual 5.25 bay active contains 3* 3.5 drives

I'm sorry to dissappoint you, but the suspension was according to Ralf so butt ugly and not effective. I had no choice but to tear the suspension apart and to build another one. Pics will again tell the story :P http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/project/sonataophanging.jpg http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/...

Any suggestion for a better suspension? Since you couldn't live with it, I'm guessing you have something better... MUCH better

I tried this and pics will tell the story: http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/project/opgehangenhd.jpg http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/project/onderkanthd.jpg http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/project/zoom%20sonata%20schroef.jpg http://www.xs4all.nl/~tormund/project/geinstalleerd.jpg BTW, didn't notice much di...

I have emailed my retailer and the price will be 14 euro's, but I still have to get my lazy ass out there to buy the fan

I just emailed nexus about it and they start shipping Wednesday to my nearest retailer. Next Monday I will buy one to replace my sonata rear fan, does anyone know the price? They didn't answered that question , but I'll find out soon enough.

It's official and it's orange

For the lazy ones, it spins on 1000 RPM moving 36.87CFM of air.
still searching for dutch shop to supply.

Edit: Oeps, I just saw there is another post, this one is a bit late, better lock it.

Here is a picture of the space left between the psu and heatsink in a Sonata.

I have Antec Sonata + Asus A7n8x deluxe + cns7000a-alcu and it fits. The clearance left between the Power supply and alcu is about 5mm.

But the zalman is only quiet on 5V then the noisiest thing is the power supply.

Seems to me that everyone here is praising this fan. Looks like the only bad point for this fan is the higher price and slightly lower CFM compared to other fans. If you live in the Netherlands, there is no bad point at all. The Nexus fan is avaible for only 9 euro and the papst is 15-18 euro. So y...

After I've read this thread, I've got myself only one Nexus real silent fan to test. The first silent fan I have bought is a Noiseblocker S1 which is suppose to be 11dba and it simply isn't, it has an annoying mid frequency buzzling sound and in my custom made wooden box it resonated... And this Nex...
