---------------------------------------------------------------------------

which brand of hard drive is most fit for a server?
i have searched everywhere for 1u cooler but that vantec listed above was the best i can find.
i would like to go higer cpu, possibly 2500+ as long as i can find the cooler. any good site
that sells 1u coolers?
 
If I was building a 1U server I would look at the 35/45 watt mobile Bartons and which Mobo they work the best in.
With around half the heat output they are a lot easier to cool.
So you may be able to run a faster CPU cooler.

Luck........ :D
