Lot's of holes and a bit of convection help here. I've got A Via C7 1.5GHz in a small case that does the trick, haven't seen any intel machines that would do the trick. Another alternative is Heat Pipes but then you have to make sure all elements is the system are connected to these. Forget about high power machines for this.
Funny enough I have NO problem at all with the HD. It's in a fully closed external SATA case and you do NOT hear it spin. You hear it when it reads or writes data. In idle mode the most noisy part of the system is actually the power supply (no fan, the transistors and inductors). "put it in a different room from your SB" is not an option, I've got an SBx in every room except for the bathroom and that one is too wet for a server. -- pippin --- see iPeng at penguinlovesmusic.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50698 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
