Re: case mod IIci.

I guess your right there... It does vent well, as you can feel the air seeping out of the vents on the case. Now to solve the problem with the dirt. I do run a Daystar accelerator in mine, so I do get a bit worried about it overheating, though it hasn't done so since the upgrade. - Ori

Re: case mod IIci.

I'll have to look at my IIci case when I get to work. I think it flows from the top to the back, so you'll probably want to stick in somewhere in the back, pulling air out, or in the top, pushing air in. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronics

case mod IIci.

Nothing spectacular, I just want a fan for the HD bay. Somebody did this probably already years ago. How do I keep from disturbing the normal air flow (should it blow air in or out etc), where should I put it (right panel, or break away the left part of the drive cage and put it somewhere in th
