You'll rarely, if ever, properly cool multiple HDDs, of any persuasion, in a "silent" > chassis. To make it silent the fans must turn at very low RPM, thus yielding very low CFM, thus yielding high device temps. You are right, I know that very well... Also I'm looking for a compromise between temperature and noise: what do you think about this case? http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=480&cl_index=1&sc_index=26&ss_index=67&g=f > > -- > 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 Giulio Carabetta-- 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
