Excellent guys, this is what I like: getting links to all the pertinent threads and a bunch of outside source material into one good directory for sticky-notin' at the top of the forum. :b&w:

One other factor that server drives are known for is their noise output. Running in an external box though, you would have the opportunity to do some noise reduction mods.

I'm all over that already, the Radius StudioArray seems to have been designed for a pair of half height 5.25" HDDs in a RAID config. There's PLENTY of cubic in there for 3.5" noise-n-vibration dampnation in those suckers!

For the SuperIIsi™ I'll be using just one Fast SCSI 2 HDD off the Rocket 33's DaughterCard. There's plenty of room to mount the single SCSI Slot Loader CD Mechanism in my collection to pop cds in-n-out of the cooling vent crack in the front . . .

. . . if only that %$#^%$%%$^% little PO$ (box) WORKED!
