Heh, a total of 40Gb, a Maxtor and a Fuji, not even sure what models. Im getting a Samsung 160Gb and suspending it when I bring it to my room.

Even with them hardmounted, when I stop the video fan, its quite quiet.

Hey, very nice. I'm looking into a very similar system for a server. Similar meaning, I want only one fan. Thanks for the ideas!
