Only mod was done on the sunbeam was to paint the LEDs black, so put it this way Sunbeam is friendly and compatible with P150.

spolitta, Is that a fan controller in the lower 5.25" bay? if it is, how did you install it and what model? The reason I ask about installation is because I don't think you used the side rail attachments and I'm wondering how you did it. Its a Sunbeam Rheobus and it is installed using the side rail...

Thanks for your answer spolitta, but wiping out RH’s warning and reposting the large photos, wasn’t so clever.

spolitta, How have you mounted that clear CoolerMaster fan? It appears to be suspended in mid air :? Like I said, it’s actually off at all times and yes it is suspended in the air and on some cables I guess. And from the other sided it’s leaned on the side panel foams. http://www.pmp3p.com/space/P1...

I love this case. Absolutely adore it. I just want a different color scheme. Black w/ silver trim would be nice. I am so sick of the hdd vibrating my whole case (thermaltake tsunami) P150 doesn’t look very good in pictures but it’s a very nice apple'ish white. Not that I'm a fan of apple but that w...

I think the worst is comparing 150GB of storage to 500... really if you need 500GB of storage then no a signle 150GB disk is not going to work, and if 150GB is enough than no 500GB is overkill.

amen.

Well I think I came up with the “money well spent” phrase because of a few different reasons. One was because I sold my P180, Seasonics S12 and zalman fan controller and bought cheaper stuff which all turned out to be great buys, and another reason was because some of the components used here were l...

I see, so thats the reason ppl use vinyl.

You will have a hard time finding the answer since not many people own such huge drives yet, some of those drives aren’t in stock in most stores and some like the WD are really unpopular. But based on what I've heard on ncix.com most of those drives are noisy compared to SPCR standards. Your best be...

Based on my experience the difference is less than two or three degree which is really nothing.

I think you should try sealing off that duct from the rest of your PC, to see if it would improve general case temps and if the air circulation in and out of that sealed off part of the case would be good with just a fan sort of bouncing the air around. If you read the thread or at least the part o...

I do not know anything about these vinyl dampening materials people use, I don’t like them mainly because I don’t have the knowledge how they work and I never had anybody explain it to me, manufactures such as nexus also describe it as a magic absorption material discovered by some scientists and fa...

repost.

Because SP2504C is pretty quiet drive according to SPCR, my friend has 2 of them and they sound pretty similar compared to the SP1614N I own. 3x 250gb is only 45$ more expensive then 3x160, price/gb. I have already explained why I put them against each other. Forget about the reviews, those good sa...

It was never on their web site. Check the automotive section at your local Canadian Tire. You are right, I just went to a CT in GTA and first they said that they have that part discontinued but they still have some sort of a same molding for cars. I took a look and it was the same product from the ...

Who do you expect to buy a PSU at such condition?

While you guys were arguing the heatpipe issue, I built a sample of my idea but using ducting instead of heatpipes . I didn’t actually install an exhaust fan too see how this duct would work because I’ve made too many mods recently I ‘m still learning toward their impact on my system. I’m actually g...

I’ve meant to post these pictures along with some long paragraphs of reviews, tips and thoughts about P150 and Silence back in 2005; however I’m not having lots of free time to write at the moment, so for now enjoy the pictures till the words get typed. http://www.pmp3p.com/space/P150/09.JPG http:/...

Impressive work, reminds me a lot about the shuttle zen actually. very sad to hear about the PSU.

just mount the first front half to the rails, then you can zip tie the back part to the P180. I had this combo and hated it very much.


Look at this picture here, see the zip tie?

why 3x sp2504c? the P120 250GB series is a lot noisier than the P120 160Gb (I own 3 250gb and 2 160gb) and the P120 160GB is noisier than the P80 160Gb SATA. so why did you choose the noisiest Samsung HD and want to compare it with such a different hard drive like the raptor 150gb, i dont know. Let ...

I would like a black one, and I already have a PSU.

Thanks.

The best quiet case without a door is in white and has a PSU, if you can deal with that then its P150.

spolitta I'm not sure but I think the answer is level difference. Heatpipes of an inverted VM-101 have a very short vertical section and the wick seems to be efficient enough to pump fluid through it without losses. ok, so the same method could be used but have the fan vertical so it would exhaust ...

I thought by this time everybody know why the stickers are ripped.

Regarding the heatpipes, how come that theyangster has his VM-101 upside down and he gets good temps too?

I wanted to switch back to seasonic so I sold my fully working NeoHE with 2 weeks warranty, but the buyer returned it the day after because of the warranty sticker. This sucks, I don’t think anyone would ever buy it in this condition. Now where are those Antec supporters who were keep saying, “stick...
