My idea has spawned into a dedicated very small server, with plenty of ability to add more storage as required. I want to build a webserver cache/proxy server so that info can be sourced faster locally and to also reduce data usage for frequently visited http: site and ftp sites. (Squid Proxy server...

The shot below shows my CM Stacker after I got rid of the 4-in-3 (the grommets were becoming less and less effective - or maybe the HDDs are getting noisier?) - the front has been removed. http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7720/undiesuspge1.th.jpg Thanks for that update.

The reason for i like the Coolermaster 4 in 3 or Thermaltake iCage http://www.pccasegear.com/prod2969.htm is because it does have that fan blowing air over the HDDs and because they are a 5.5 to 3.5" HDD solution. I would use a case like the CoolerMaser 532 Centruion which has filtered front panel a...

What cools your HDD better?
Im curious to know what would provide more efficient HDD cooling. The options are: 1. CoolerMaster 4-in-3 Module for Stacker http://www.pccasegear.com/images/cm4in3b.jpg or the Hard Drive Vibration Silencer http://www.pccasegear.com/images/hddvibe2-019b.jpg The difference being that the CoolerMaster...

any data on whether straight blades vs scooped blades
Im curious to hear if the pro's and con's for straight blades versus scooped blade and in particular which provide more pressure?
I am looking at the Aerocool 120mm Streamliner or Turbine Fans. (has more blades) and i plan to suck the air through a 10cm length of 80mm ducting.

case temp vs fan noise v air circulation
Im thinking about this again and again. There is clearly a direct correlation between case temps, fan noise and air circulation. Firstly, what is the general concensus about good case temp for a quiet PC? Perhaps 10c above ambient? Flowing on from that is the relation of fan noise and air circulatio...

Im curious if any solution was found with this setup. I want to use a Zalman OP1 thin 80mm fan powered by a USB port (and possibly controolled with a Fanmate) to cool my Cable PVR. Are there any other thin 80-92mm fans that will start at 5v? Alternatively, the PVR has a HDD and if i can hack open th...

Will the thermo controlled fans still operate properly at 5V
I know standard fans will run a 5V but im not sure if the temp probe will still work properly at 5V? What im looking at doing is mod one of these 80 or 120mm fans so that it gets its power from a usb port. It will be used to cool a PVR (non PC). If you have any suggestions for which model/brand plea...

what is better cooling for the HDD?
Im undecided over what proves the better option here.
1. Fan blowing over across bare mounted HDD, or
2. a HDD Sink (like hdd rails) with natural convection? ( negligible case air flow)
Thanks
