chazz,
Hi. I'm doing audio recording under Linux & Windows. I've got a small rack of audio equipment. I may be getting on a plane in December to do some work in New York and will need to take all this stuff with me. It would be great to put the PC in the rack with the other equipment. 1/2/4U are all probably OK. Obviously smaller is better as long as the cooling works well and the machine is very quiet. Probably a bigger issue is the depth of the case as these racks aren't real deep.

I don't need the liquid itself to be portable. I can drain and reload the machine as needed. It will sit in one place in NY for 2-3 weeks.

If this sort of solution isn't out there then I'll probably just go with a Koolance as I need to do something pretty soon to get ready for this possibility. I haven't done water cooled before, but it's time...

Thanks,
Mark
