lol no , only a fan cut into the side, its just an emachines case with new guts put in it. I got it for free because someone at work blew it up . I liked the led power button so I kept it and put a new mobo in it , bigger psu, etc etc. I cut the hole in the side of the case with a roto-zip, they make a dremel feel like a tonka toy! :yes:

I'm calling bs on that one. I have two desktops both with the same hard drive arrangement.

One has been running everyday for almost 3 years, the other a year, and not a single problem.

Computer heat isn't as much of an issue as some people make it out to be.

I knwo from seeing a friend do it, bulking hard drives together liek that can kill them, i guess if the room you are in has a cool ambient temperature and you have good airflow in your case it isnt so bad, but i know it can kill them or corrupt data, i always leave a small gap between mine, and i have a file server stacked with drives

heat is a real problem... if you're in a place with a good airflow and that your computer have a good one, that's maybe why you don't see the problem. But once your hd will fail, think about the fact that having it cooler then you do would have gave him at least 25 to 50% more life time

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.

      Your daily driver? Weird, seeing that you don't seem to understand how your own browser downloads and installs its updates. What you posted earlier is factually incorrect...
