That's a really good price... and the fit is good!?  Thanks for sharing that mate. :happy2:

Have you fitted them yet?  Love to see how they look... are there any benefits other than cosmetic?

No probs mate- I fitted them purely for looks, I guess they might help with cooling a little.

Got this for a £85 with HP's £100 offer; 4 - 5 bay, eSATA, RAID controller... tis great.  Getting around 80-90MB/s wired from PC :)

I have 2 of these. Very versatile bit of kit

I'm well happy with mine, getting some great transfer rates... this was about 5 mins in:

That's as quick as I get from eSATA, but this baby is sat in the garage! :laugh:  Ace. :smiley:

Still even at a good rate, 1TB is a lot of data to write.

Re the grilles, I noticed when a fox's head broke one of mine that the R32 ones are 2 piece, an open grille with a blocking piece clipped on the back. I never tried to see if the front part fitted back on its own, but I'd guess that R32 owners could have open grilles for zero outlay...?
