    Silverstone DS380: ITX 8 drives hot-swap

    It's just one of the units I've been looking at -- I had to go back and search for the FSP 450W on Newegg (it's listed as Micro ATX). Seeing that this one is 130 mm deep just prompted me to see whether or not it could possibly fit in this case. It's always nice to know all of your options...

    Silverstone DS380: ITX 8 drives hot-swap

    The manual says it needs a 100 mm SFX psu, but I bet you could even squeeze the SS-350SFE (130 mm) psu in it. There looks to be 6" behind the drive cages which should be enough

    Silverstone DS380: ITX 8 drives hot-swap

    From the manual: I would guess you can still use a PCIe SATA card and use all 8 + 4 drives. The post above was talking about using all drives + a graphics card, since almost no mini-itx motherboards can support 12 drives without a an expansion card, which would rule out a dual slot GPU.

    Silverstone DS380: ITX 8 drives hot-swap

    This is just what I've been looking for. I was leaning towards the Lian Li PC-Q25 as well, but was wishing for something that could accomodate more drives for future growth -- especially hot-swappable ones. $150 seems like a great price to me for. I had come across a couple of iStars with very...

    Monoprice Zero-G Slim 27" 2560x1440p

    Just came across this Anandtech review of the the Monoprice Zero-G Slim. They didn't think too highly of it. Anybody have one of these? Comments suggested these can be had for ~$312 on sale. Worth considering at that price, or are the Korean monitors a better way to go? Worth spending more on...

    Safe trading

    Really good advice about getting and verifying the personal info. I hadn't thought about getting a third-party to act as a broker for the deal. That might actually be the best way to do it if you use someone with an impeccable reputation. What would be the best way to find and contact someone...

    3930k recommended voltages and temps?

    Does anyone have a good reference for recommended "safe" voltages and temps? I know that you should definitely keep it under 1.5 vcore on the 3930k, but what's considered a generally OK range? What do people feel comfortable with? 1.4? 1.35? If your recommendation changes for 24/7, please...

    Safe trading

    Yeah, I'm having a hard time seeing a great way to go about it. I guess it's a good reason to not be such a lurker the forums - it seems like this has one of the best classifieds sections of any site. In general do you think most people have a good buying/trading/selling experience here?

    Safe trading

    I wanted to get some input on ways to trade safely, especially when the people involved have little heatware or rep. I don't have any heat (yet), and I know a lot of buyers don't have heat (yet) either. Obviously it's best to work with someone with high heat, or at least do it in person. A...

    Tips for safe trades

    Hello. New here. I'm trying to sell/trade my 3930k on another forum since I've only used this account occasionally and don't have enough posts to list it here. I hope I'm not violating any rules. I'm talking with someone who is offering a 7950 + $$, and I was wondering what the best way to...
