Hey, i know that case.......

[KAknight]

I think the link is bad. I got some error that says,

"Access to the desired Web page is restricted at this time.
Reason:

The Websense category "Blocked Sites" is restricted."

Can anyone else get there?

[GroundZero3]

let me guess your at school knight? websense is a proxy to filter out web sites and material.

That's you game system, huh? WOW!

Did you modify the positioning of your hard disk rack or is that where it originally was? Mine is located at the lower front of the case and I'd like to move it to a different position but can't because my FDD is attached to the hard disk rack. If only I could move that huge rack to the top like your case has, I think better air ventilation could be done... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif The case I'm using is a Micronics 9010a and I like everything about the case, but the positioning of the disk rack isn't so nice..

Sorry the pictures so big... This is an image I already had in the server and was too lazy to crop it and repost it....


Notice how the HUGE hard disk rack covers a portion of the mainboard? I need to take that tack off when I need to get to the IDE channels. The IDE channels are blocked by the hard disk rack.....

Hi NDC,

I moved the HD rack to the top of the case, above the PSU. I wanted maximum air flow and cooling and I hate seing that big HD rack covering the mobo.

I also have a 12cm fan blowing air right onto the CPU's, but you can't see it as it attached on the case itself.

Dunno if you can see it, but there is also a 8cm fan just in front of the 2 HD's, so it can extract hot air generated by the HD's.

Thats the way Aopen builds their full towers. It rocks because there are fans that keep your harddisks cool.
Check them out (I do love these cases)

Nice setup Stan...

Hey Dr_Watson, is there anywhere that rounded cables can be purchased? I am not too good with the knife.

That sure is one heck of a case youv'e got there. wish i had the $$ to fill up one of them.

[Dr_Watson]

they sell pre-rounded 80 wire cables... (the 80 wire guys are alot trickier than the 40's)

i think they also sell standard ide round cables too...

(lots of other fun stuff also, like neons and acrylic windows)

[Brangwen]

Very impressive systems!

Oh, it's Stan, I remember when you posted your system pics about a year ago...nice to see ur moving up in the world.

That's a sweeet system BTW, I can only be envious, ur ride isn't that bad either...my dad has an '87 325i convertible, I loved driving that to work everyday up in Austin, manual is my flavor!

BTW, -KAknight-, if you download Netscape 6 or Internet Explorer onto that computer that has the Internet Blocker Software, you should be able to access that site and any other...that's what I did.
