I've been using a few of those Smart Drive 2002c enclosures for several years and they work great. At one time I ran a couple sata cables out the back of my desktop PC and into a couple of those sitting on the floor next to the case. I couldn't hear the drives at all and I'm very sensitive to high pitched noises. Now I have those enclosures doing the same setup on my server in a closet. The drives do run a little hotter in there, but every time I checked the SMART values the temperature was very reasonable. (don't remember the actual numbers) I never had a drive fail inside an enclosure, but I probably never left a drive in there longer than two or three years before upgrading for capacity. _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
