External HDD enclosure made out of a tissue box and cardboard from the previous ghetto HDD enclosure I had. I find this one quite an improvement over the other one (of which I don't have pictures). On the first pic you can see the cardboard & tape height increaser (to allow air to pass underneath). The fan is an exhaust fan, BTW and not an intake one.

I like that it has a grill on the fan. The cardboard cases seem so fitting somehow; like not out of place at all. Maybe its just me lol

Thanks Irony. Cardboard is a great material IMO and really underappreciated.

I would have thought an HS from a mobo chipset would have been a better choice / fit but hey if it works right who cares
