Technically no because the heat doesn't have a way to escape as it goes up and you'd be feeding it right back against the heat sink. Seth Galitzer wrote: So I can still mount it horizontally, so long as the vents are facing down into the open air? I just lose the lock slot that way. Thanks

UhhCraig said it can be mounted only vertically. The idea behind this is probably: Cool air gets sucked into the lower vent when the hot air inside moves up and leaves the DTU through the highest vent. So the cooling airflow through the Sun Ray is caused by heating the air inside the Sun
