How about motherboard with integrated adapter? Intel makes many chipsets with graphics adapter. Some boards come in mATX form factor, so You can have/use smaller cases. nForce2 could be a bit overkill. Cheers, Jan

Hmm, is there any difference in sound between any card if You're using sound card that has SPDIF out? Jan

You can do as much as a pre-amp. There is little sense putting more heat producing components (=amplifiers) in the box. Plus the computer is really electronically noisy inside. You could build one if You'd really like though. However, computer is better just as source. Cheers, Jan

I don't think so. WD should put the PATA version on sale as well then. SATA markets are still small, even smaller than SCSI. So it would not be profitable to sell just SATA drives, if the electronics are still PATA. The press release says though "3.3 V Serial ATA power not used in this...

How much data can tape libraries contain? 10 TB? Jan

Best alternative is to make a hole through the side panel and attach a fan & fan duct to the CPU heat sink. But the hole will let the sound come out even more. Some Intel specsheets planned a system that Dell for instance is using; one fan sucks the heat out and replaces the CPU fan. Blakerwry...

I'd really like to see cases that have built-in 120mm slots for fans & filters. Probably two in front and one in back (I'd like two, but there really is no space...). And with the fans, some software & temperature controlled fanbus. Basically stuff that will make my box less loud. Cheers, Jan
