Or how about carbon fiber paper for the drive?

You can even see the drive decal on top.

Bulge in front I keep talking about. Where I can hide the wires.

That might make the drive a good bit warmer...if you're going to wrap it, take cooling it into account.

Hey, what are you doing up this late?

Didn't think of that. I wonder if paint will too?
I'd like a bay cover. But this case is just too small for one.

It's 9:15 in the morning here in Scotland.

I'm thinking that covering it will create a thin layer of hot air that will stay inside of the wrapping, heating up the drive. I don't think that painting would cause a big difference.

I'd suggest cutting out shapes and sticking them to the drive somehow, maybe with a spray adhesive so you can get it right and it won't ruin the drive.

I guess that's why your up It's only 2:30am here.

Yeah, I think the paper is too thick, and will hold in way too much heat.
The only thing with painting it. If I do, I really should paint all of them. Which really isn't a problem, since I only need to the 3 sides and top. Scratches worry me though. Some of them are tight fits going into the bay, and I don't want them all messed up. Hmmmmm ....

I painted my drives, and they did take some scratches going into the slots. But then again, i have a wide tray in mine, so it hides the scratches on the drives. As i didn't clear coat the drives i wasn't expecting much else really.

My drives are loose in their bays at the moment as the screw holes on the drive and the rails don't line up. I need to get around to drilling holes. Its only 8:47pm at night here in Australia.

Nice carbon fiber look.

I don't like that paper carbon fiber stuff at all. It looks cheap, no offense of course. It would make some awesome Christmas present wrapping though!

I would just take the plate off of the HDD and paint that either white or red. Does anyone have a link to that painted HDD on these forums or any other? The ones I saw on this forum really were awesome looking.

I think it's the attention to little details that hard core impress people. No one will be able to argue about the sheer beauty of this mod though!

Angelina Jolies Lips...and im a man that loves his lips...

I can agree with you up to the point of calling her a man. Thats just insulting! lol

No, he's saying he (Nocturnal) is a man who like his (i.e. everyone else's) lips.

In other words, he finds it an attractive feature in particular.

I think I'll look for the painted drives to see how they look.


Morning, evening, and late, late show? Isn't the net great!
