Gadge Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 The case is cool looking, which model is it? Can you hear much of the fan noise? How did you get on with the SSD's in the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 Gadge- The case is a Sharkoon Rebel 12. Available from Scan. Yes, it's fairly noisy with the configuration i've got. Main noise comes from the hot-swap drive bays but even still the drives near the top sit around 40C so I wouldn't want them any warmer. I'm not using the SSD's.

Gadge Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I may treat myself to one, thanks. Which model are the drive bays? do they have any temperature warning features i.e flashing LEDS or alarms?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fancy warnings, the LED's aren't done the best way either. I rely on my disk controller and hdsentinal to warn me of problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeWee Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 One of the first things I thought was that you done rather well with so many cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeWee Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Looks a tidy buildNoob question, is that power supply enough? I thought so too, room left to fit a full Toblerone in that space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered the same but concluded it might extracting hot air to the rear? Looks like its sat above the pci slots though. I bet you a toblerone its to cool the raid controller.
