4 hard drives... but how to mount them that's the question... ;)

Thanks for your help again

Comparing noise of 2 quiet drives or 1 loud drive?

Laptop hard drives aren't as desireable as they're a bit small (biggest I could find was 100Gb). I'm going for an mini-itx motherboard anyway so there should be a bit of room. Bit worried about fitting more than one hard drive though. Thanks for your answer though :)

Fitting extra drives in the SS LC04?

Hello all,

Is it possible to hack the SS LC04 to fit extra 3 1/2 inch hard drives? As 1 isn't enough :)

Thanks very much for your help in advance!

Antec Aria + Mini ITX?

Hello all,

Am interested in the Antec Aria case and using a mini-itx mobo in that case, but I read a review trying out a M10000 in an Antec Aria and it claims the PCI slot cannot be used - is this true?

Thanks very much for your help in advance

Have been looking at getting an mATX motherboard that's undervoltable and underclockable but not sure which CPU type to go for - an AMD XP-M or an AMD 64 (not s...
