    Vertically Mount Two 2.5" SAS Hard Drives in a Dual 5.25 Bay?

    get something like this https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817994148 cut the excess away and mount the hot plug bit where you need it. something to guide the drives and hold them, possibly involving rubber bands and paperclips, should be fairly simple.

    From Spinning Rust

    fluffy heat pads on a copper heatsink that clamped to the hot modules using a single thumbscrew would satisfy me, if the thermal pads were better at conducting heat than air would be.

    SAMSUNG 850 EVO M.2 2280 500GB SATA III 3-D Vertical Internal SSD Single Unit Version MZ-N5E500BW on the other hand {Vodka} a bunch of sata III M2 drives would need nowhere the resources, and might not generate nearly as much heat while getting the Data off rust. still @ ~ $400/TB steep. do...

    From Spinning Rust

    yah. right now running 8/8, video/drives with 8*1tb 960's in raid6 looks [H] though. {ok, so it actually wants 4 lanes/drive ? so much for that plan. /edit} but @ $650 per each (PRO) a $5200 array is steep, right now. there would need to be a device to plug into the slot to plug the drives...

    [H]ardOCP Spec Bookshelf Speaker Setup

    I wonder how time alignment of the set of drivers would mess with EQing, particularly with the sub being right next to one side or the other speaker.

    From Spinning Rust

    migrating my data from HDD to SSD has me wanting multi TB M2 PCIe, but, expensive. right now Raiding multi HDDs gives the volume needed. it feels like we will be looking at Raiding M2 drives soon..ish. at which point I will be wanting lots of PCI lanes, or am I missing something ?

    Mini ITX Case with USB 3.1 Front Ports?

    calling it 3.2 would make sense to me

    Why are AF fans typically 4-pin/PWM and SP fans are almost always 3-pin?

    speculation: possibly the flow through radiator falls off so quickly with reduced RPM that throttling is effectively useless ?

    Stupid idea to get a UPS? If not, what would cover me?

    APC BR1000G Back-UPS Pro 1000VA 8-outlet Uninterruptible Power Supply for ~ $130 should have no problem with running 2 non [H] computers and have enough time to give a decent pause before needing to shutdown for an outage. a nearby lightning strike blew lightbulbs and fried a light switch in my...

    3D print PSU case

    the Cooler Master Elite 130 - Mini-ITX Computer Case puts the psu like 3" directly above the CPU cooler, ok for water but severely hampering air cooling. the case is setup for a full ATX which is cool but excessive. A SFX psu measures 4.92" x 2.5" x 3.94" An ATX, 3.39" x 5.91" x 7.09" so...

    ESD damaged system

    "Can an existing damaged component store static somehow and "infect" other good components?" no. not the way you described it. the only way I know of that the charge could be 'stored' would be if everything was perfectly insulated, otherwise (in the real world) the charge would 'evaporate'...

    3D printed ducts and AIO brackets?

    maybe. where the duct meets the fan is critical, there needs to be a way for the fan to get enough traction on the air to force enough flow through the restriction of the duct + heatsinks. completely enclosing the intake of the fan would do that, but a skinny duct just through the VRMs...

    Mini ITX Case with USB 3.1 Front Ports?
