Alternative products for Koolance's Thermal Encapsulate Material?
 

I bought 2 of the Koolance HDC1's to use on my on board SATA RAID, 2 - 36.7G 10,000 rpm WD Raptor drives.
I'm not sure exactly what it is or who they (Koolance) gets it from but I'm sure someone could find a much better price for a similar product.
I've been doing some searching on the net to find some. I did find a few sites that list such products.
It'd be sweet to find it in a one part, not two part, in something like a calk tube, it would be much easier to control that way that with a spoon or popsicle stick.
I bought 2 - HDC2's from newegg for $12.99 each + $4.00 shipping each http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...155-996&depa=0 but if I could buy some other product that will do the same thing for less, why not.
I don't know if what I got was old stock or not but the stuff was THICK.

urethane or silicone
thermal conductivity, dielectric strength, flexible compound
Potting, Casting, Encapsulation

maybe something here ?

Let me know what you find out. That looks like an attractive alternative to making my own HD blocks.

The alternative to making is to buy some HD blocks, side mount if you have a 5-1/4 drive bay to spare or bottom mount.
Koolance's HDC1 $33.99 + $4.00 shipping. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...999-988&depa=0
