The only drives that might even be considered would be the 15k seagate scsi drives. If you have a poor case, 99/100 times the cause, then watercooling your hd's is simply making up for a poor case design. We really should address simple things like getting a good case for airflow before we start adding watercooling.

Sorry but I have allready tried to explain this twice.
The drives are hot becuase they loud. To get around this they are in a soundproofed enclosure. An enclosure means no airflow. I looked for a harddrive enclosure rated for 10K drives and got a good option on the watercooled one. If it was not in an enclosure I wouldnt be cooling it.
Baracudas run quiet so I did not need to put them in the enclsoure so I did not need forced cooling.

As did I
So can I assume we will supply the rad and fans with the blocks and tubing. Also will we be including a GPU block in the test ??
I like the idea of simulating multiple blocks (or even fitting mutiple blocks) just to give another perspective. (but then I would)
Now for the problem. Pug does not stock a complete kit that fits all your requirements. Would you settle for parts from the same manufacturer ??
Also would a 1048 pump satisfy your requirements ??
Secondly I havent spoken to Pug about this yet (if you have been Ph then I will leave it up to ye to decide.)
