C0DE Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 HD upside down. is this ok? im sure it is its just that i have never seen it done before. i couldnt hide my power cables and it even turns out that my rounded cables caused more clutter... so took those out. please advise if anyone has experienced any problems with this... although it seems to be running great.

Propane Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 the only problem i can think of is a possible heat problem and the PCB board getting too hot. Its probolly ok though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badams66 Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 It kinda lookes like you have 2 HDs close together, and just to remind you that heat rises! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead009 Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 looks fine to me, acctually i think i might do the same thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
C0DE Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 the temps are fine... i was just curious if this would cause the HD to malfuntion even though i highly doubt it just havent seen any pics b4 of it done so i wanted to make sure that i wasnt missing something... was just making sure. thanks for the input. it really did help with my wire management though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vyroburn Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 Actually the hard drive does not matter where it is placed. In many machines from Dell / Compaq / hp hard drives are placed in rather wierd places so your will be totally fine.. Plus Nice Clean system Man..

Overclocker16 Posted July 24, 2003 Posted July 24, 2003 Yes, in my sony it is placed sideways. Makes it easier just to open the side, put in a hard drive and connect power and IDE to it. But I am not saying Sony is good. Maybe for a n00b that doesn't build computers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sYstEmATiC Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 But I am not saying Sony is good. Maybe for a n00b that doesn't build computers. im not saying sony is good either but i would get a sony over any of the others (emachines, dell, hp, compaq, gateway) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overclocker16 Posted July 25, 2003 Posted July 25, 2003 Yeah. It is a nice computer. But not worth the money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
