why so much space?????
 
lo9l, 11 320GB drives... think he means 1. But this doesn't really class as a case mod, IMO.

no he doesnt, thats why he said 4.1tb total and "drives" not "drive" like the others.

damn cut down on teh pr0n boy !! lol
 
meh, did'nt read that far. And anyway, can P180's fit that many drives anyway :/
 
How is this a monster? More pictures please.

I think the "monster" is the 4.1 TB. But yeah more pics would help.
 
Ok, all them drives are fine but. I know that the board thats in the case in the picture won't connect that many drives, and I don't see any controller cards being used. so now I would like to see some pic to back-up your 4.1TB drive space. Please

nope I think he means 11 320's.

I like it, should look nice with new pics and hopefully a litttle more wiremanagment.

I concider it a mod for he has it on water cooling, (not stock pc) but your intitled to what you concider a mod as am I :P this is a case gallery though.


Edit: ah I guess mullered already mentioned that, so he must of modded his case to fit all those HD's :P some people dont like overly flashy cases.. He could of done more with it but he has modified it from being a stock computer.
 
More pics please, I cant really rate from what I see.
 
there is 5 drives in my cd rom part then 2 in the middle chamber 1 in the stiffy bay and then 4 in the bottom chamber that equals 12 and there is 2 on the ide channel 6 on the mobo,s sata and i have a 2 port sata card and a ide card for the other 2 drives my dvdwriter is external like i said my mods arent complete and im modding it to a certain extend i dont want to lose the silent feature of the case
the four bottom chamber drives are in 2 raid 0 sets 2x320,s one set and the other 2 x 320,s the other set the rest are just running normal

gave you a 7. It has lots of potential but would be nice to see some fantastic cable managment.

nice mods though.
 
yeah im going to keep the side panels but get my carbon fibre sticker job done right round and the cables are the biggest pain in the world trying to hide cables for 12 drives is a bit hard hey
 
There ws one guy who cut the leanths and clamped the plugs down onto them to keep the wires from drive to drive short. gtg shower work.

7/10
i agree with my friend man this case need a cable management system NOW!!! its confuse to see what kind of thing u made.

bye ;)

see and vote im my case : http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1034
 
still cant see why you need 4.1Tb of space - seriously what are doing to use that much space???
 
I voted 6 because it is a good system with lots of storage space. Don't worry about cutting wires and voiding warranty, it is totally pointless- you can do a perfect wiring job using what you have. Get yourself loads of cable ties, and tie up everything neatly, it will make the case not only look better, but it will give better airflow too.
Watercooling is nice, I particularly like the Zalman waterblock. Fair PSU, if you wanted really neat cables modular is the best option, but non-modular is for the real enthusiasts that want no loss of efficiency.
Anyway, as soon as you tidy up the cables in there I am sure you will get higher votes :)
 
yeah man you dont have to mod the psu cables just tidy all the cables up some more in the case with stuff... helps the airflow alot will keep your components cooler.

I know you have done an ok job better tham alot of people with the cables but just keep them all together along side the mobo with cable ties elc, just keep them all more symmetrical ;).
