Ok, first thing on the agenda: How do you keep the the vents in the front(assuming your front is the air intake) from clogging up with dust?
2. What size fans go in the 4 brackets(2 in front, 2 in rear)? Can you use 80 or 92mm and what fans can move some good cfm that are quiet at that size? It doesn't seem like the panflo's I've seen can move very much air.
3. I just ordered another hard drive and am going to have to stack three high in one of the removable drive bays. It's going to be pretty tight. They will all also be 7200rpm drives so I'm really concerned about heat. I'm going to put them in the bay that has the bracket for a fan, so that will help a little bit I guess. Am I crazy for putting three in one of those bays? I really don't have any other option unless I do something totally bootleg.
4. Have any of you guys modded your 1030 to have a blow hole in the side or have you found that the front and rear fan areas were sufficient? I'm probably going to move to rounded cables just to help make it more spacious as well.
