Scythe creates a product which' ll be a competition only to its other product - quiet drive. Nice one.

Got 4 of these coolers All brand new. Still want to get 2 more. Part i love is that you can slide to on the rubbers to any postion.

Still prefer these. I know they are only for water cooling rigs but they work very well and look the part when you have a few of them stacked up and filled with drives.

they are nice - a friend has these for all his drives - I still think they are only suited for some cases

deadlyavenger · 29th May 2010, 18:25

Yeah - looking at the image on the link it looks really ugly & out of place on that case.

I guess it would suit a custom build quite well with exposed internal parts.

Im still using a pair of SilentMAXX enclosure I purchased wayyyy back in 2004.

Back in the day these were the best way to keep the 36GB/74GB Raptors seek noise down!

These are definitely on the shopping list for my next build.

Have to agree with that. it would probably look good hanging out the front of some thing like the HAF.

Looks space ageish- reckon it might look quite good with an SSD mounted to it (and yes I know SSDs dont produce much heat, just for the awesome looks

)

My discs are all cold to the touch. In fact I don't remember a drive even getting warm let alone hot in 18 years of geekery. Maybe I'm lucky... It would be nice to silence the little buggers though, without unwittingly insulating them and raising the temps. Do these products do that?

Are these hard-disks are only made for general PCs (Limited Size) or they are also available for Servers with larger storage capacities, Server cooling is always a challenge for them who maintain it.

Seems nice one, but can you please tell us how much does it cost?
