Any experience with stacking drives in the sleds offered under the
vent fan of a Quicksilver 2002?
My Seagates (750 & 500GB) look awfully close together run off the
onboard controller. For heat and ventilation reasons, would prefer
they be separated, but even using a longer style non-CS IDE

Do not stack bare HDs directly upon each other, ever.
As long as the drives have some reasonable air gap between them,
there shouldn't be a problem.
I often don't have sleds... so I make small corregated co

I use flat angle brackets from the hardware store. I can't remember
if I get the 1.5" or the 2". Just get four of them, and screw them

Replace those droves asap since grinding means failing hard drive.

I don't have any QSs, but in my Sawteeth, DA and GigE I was able to
flip the second drive over, putting the two drives' IDE connectors
closer together. Just close enough that I could mount ONE of them
on a sled and have the other next
