yep, makes it a lot easier to get at stuff - especially since the board has a power button built onto it etc., - I couldn't find a suitable case to hold all the hard drives and ones close to it cost over £100 and required shed loads of cooling.
Instead I used the case money for other things, it's bolted to the wall (making theft tricky), also it doesn't really gather dust - I found cases mean forcing high volumes of air through them, so gather dust Lots of fans to cool also means lots of noise . Without the artificial airflow forcing dust into the system the heat just convects up and away, the components are still cool and everything is silent since there are only 2 low rpm fans with the chipset and voltage regulators. -------------------- ![]() |
