If the solution is going into an ordinary comms room, then you might do well to look at clusters of something like these.

Alternatively see if your target comms room is equipped to deliver 48vDC. This may offer a substantially cheaper option.

WizardDesigns in the UK has them too.

Gooserider, The rad can be seen at Over-Clock . It's the second one down and I think it is single-pass, but your description belies that. afrost, the tubes are long lengths of 1/2" tygon. Inlet is connected with a straight plastic barb, and it curves smoothly. The outlet is dead straight and connect...

Thanks for the replies, Gooserider and apocalypse80. The question, I guess, is if I go to the bother of fabricating a 5x5x7" box, will I see any noise benefits? I'm not convinced I will, and I'm not sure I want to go to the bother of fabbing if there isn't going to be any benefit. BTW, Gooserider, t...

chylld,

What are your brass whatsits called? I think they're just what I need, but I can't find anything similar in the UK.

These maybe a different thing, but Tank Connectors here in the UK seem to do the same job. I have a couple of Code PB3815 at PolyPipe to play with. They came out of the local DIY store. My issue with them is that they are bulky, there's no tap and the "tank side" of the connector is difficult (for m...

50/50 so far. I'm guessing the answer, as ever, is it depends. Apocalpse80 wrote : One thing to note though , since I have the same pump , you'll need a BIG tank (nah , HUGE). Just so I can get some perspective here, are you talking bucket size? I was thinking of fabricating a lexan reservoir (box s...

So I've got my suspended Eheim 1250 pumping through a bunch of stuff. The rad is outside the box, the pump is inside the box. Temps are OK and it's quietish, but if I suspend it submerged in a reservoir will it get quieter? I've seen posts for and against. On the temp question, I've seen arguments t...

So if I get this right, Asus mobos don't record the temperatures accurately?

Consequently any temp monitoring software on an Asus board will be optimistic?

The delay circuit is good - my NAS server does this with 4 drives, and the start up load is nice and even.

Takes a while though.

Oh yes - they come with Sunon fans. Sunon have taken a design stance that nosier is better, so replacements will be required.

I'm currently doing the same thing: 2 x rackmounted pcs, one music workstation (DAW), one file/app server. I appreciate what shathal says about the niche being unlikely, but this is it: Most studio equipment in 19" rack, and the quiet pcs you pick up from carillon, sub, digital village etc usually h...

Great job, sir.

Do you happen to know if it matters what orientation the radiator sits in? I need something similar, but want to mount it through 90deg:

Assuming this is possible, I guess the inlet (hot) would be at the top?

Thanks for the replies, everyone. This is the most courteous and gentelmanly forum I've ever come across. Mind you, I do normally frequent gambling sites and they're usually full of snipers. Given that there is a dearth of sata ready PSUs, I'm now looking at the water cooled options. Does anyone hav...

Just one:

Have you modded the SilentDrive to stop the 2.5" drive rattling around? If so what did you use?

Forgive me if this has been done to death - I did a quick search, but didn't see anything too relevant. I am building a RAID server using 6 SATA drives of the quiet variety. I know I'm never going to get this kind of thing super quiet, but I do want to keep it as quiet as possible. Can anyone recomm...
