SoRRoW 10-13-2002 12:00 PM

that casing is bad.I saw that at Comp USA..can you get them cheaper online?I forgot the name...

I dont have a need for RAID.

I dont have a system that has to be up 24/7, and I archive all of my data on CD's and TAPE.



trust me, RAID is not the best way to keep all of your data; it should be relied upon only as part of your design to keep your system up as long as possible..



and yes, I should know; my last gig was on the Netfinity/E Server series team at IBM.

Sorrow: do you mean the casing is bad or hot?

I was going to get this case online, but I got a sweet deal at a local shop here for the case and 400Wt PS. Plus it already included the clear side case, which at the time was going for around 19.99 online a couple of months ago when I got it.

What do you mean hot? as in stolen?



I dotn think that case went for $19.99...



What did you pay for it..and how did you get the lights inside?

VRex07TT 10-13-2002 12:30 PM

i think the case was around 70-80, powersupply was thrown in at a good deal ( i cant remember)



the 19.99 part is not the case, but the Clear Panel part of the case.

Most of the sites that sold this Skyhawk Case sold it stock, with the regular side panels. They offered you the choice at the time to pay an additional 19.99 for a Clear sided panel.



When I saw this at a local store, I haggled with the guy, and he gave it to me for a real nice deal, and I took it home and found out that it included the Clear side.



The light is a mod that you can add, which connects to your Powercable DIN connectors. Installation was kinda easy, you just have to be creative.



Do you see the black switch on the front that says "ON/OFF"?

I took one of the extra Floppy Drive filler panels, and drilled a nice center hole to place the switch in, so it looks all professional and sweet.



And HOT meaning phat or fresh, not stolen, LOL.

I guarentee you, CompUSA doesnt sell this case!
