im building a new pc and planning to use my old one as a file storage pc with like 5 HD's in it.
old pc is:
dual p3 1ghz / 1gb ram / 8500 radeon / 4x250gb / 1x120gb / 420w enlight power supply
the case i have it in right now is pretty tight fit so i plan on getting a bigger case for more room for the HDs. as of right now, i have the case open with a small fan blowing into it lol .. my motherboard and cpu doesnt get hot really and with fan blowing into the case, the HD keeps cool.
so was wondering, what would be a good method to keep 5 HD cool in the case? would having 120mm fans in front of case be enough? should i get individually cooling for each HD? i dont really need the pc to be really silent but as long as its not tooo loud. im used to the noise anyway with a fan blwoing in front of it lol.
lastly, what would be a good case with good airflow to put all this in? .. oh and the cheaper the better
