VIP Power Mobile Rack Review (Discussion)

Discussion concerning the VIP Power Mobile Rack Review.

liked the review. and i myself swear by these things [although I prefer the all-aluminum ones with 3 fans (one in the back and two up front)].

I use them to multi-boot different operating systems on a single PC, just set your BIOS to detect the boot drive and you can use all your old spare but still functional hard drives to boot other operating systems [ie. Linux flavors, BSD, Solaris, XP, NT, ME, whatever]. They can also be handy for backups too.:thumb:

as you can see these have two small 40mm fans up from of the inner rack [or cartridge as some people call them] and a single fan at the back of the base [the part that mounts inside your 5.25" bays].. the fans and the aluminum do a pretty decent job of cooling the drives.
