    Agreed - so why claim it is and waste money supplying pointless brackets for the purpose? I notice from the PDF referenced above that the FT02 is billed as "Supports liquid cooling radiator mounting" so they are still pushing this.

    I must admit that my initial impression that SilverStone know what they are talking about on cooling took a major knock when I read the instructions in the RV02 manual for installing a water cooling radiator. They actually supply brackets to mount a radiator on top of the two fans under the...

    The design concept of these cases is to have a straight-through air path from the bottom to the top of the case cooperating with convection to minimise the need for fan assist. Horizontal planes break this concept and require energy input to force the air against or across convection. We need to...

    With equal respect, you have missed my point! My objective is to improve cooling for the hard drives primarily not the DVD. As I said, installing a DVD drive horizontally will spoil the vertical air flow through the hard drives because the rising air runs into a flat obstruction and has to take...
