In a nut shell ...

Storm, use the D5 (mcp650) with 1/2" ID tubing.
Pros: D5 has speed control
Cons: D5 is large

Apogee, use the DDC-1 (mcp350) with 3/8" ID tubing.
Pros: DDC-1 is compact and powerful.
Cons: No speed control, must add separately.

For an error of 1 or 2 degrees, more or less, the 3/8" tubing works the best inside a case.

Personally, I have an external WC'ing setup. Only two tubes run in/out of the computer. Less chances for leaks to occur.
