Btw, with a few holes drilled this bad boy holds 7 3.5" HDDs > no problem: http://www.antec.com/productPSU.php?id=30&pid=3 It would seem you didn't mod the airflow of the case along with the increased drive count. The NSK1380 has really poor airflow to begin with: a single PSU mounted 120mm super low RPM fan. Antec is currently shipping the NSK1380 with an additional PCI slot centrifugal fan to help overcome the limitations of the native design. You bought crap drives, WD20EARS, then improperly modded a case to house more than twice the design limit of HDDs. I'd say you stacked the deck against yourself here Mathias. -- Stan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
