Crazy case! Really nice job on it!

Are you booting off the RAID? Or a better question; Can you boot off the RAID?

[U.C.]

It must have taken some time to make that case

With a see-thru case like this, I would spray paint it white. Inside the case, not outside. This will give it a total Apple look. And I would see about arranging those dangling cables inside. Just a few thoughts.

Absolutely stunning!! Does RAID 0 work with your mobo (which?), bootable? Congrats anyway, one of the best cases and settings I´ve ever seen!

best case that I've seen yet.    where did you get it?

I use this method sammy

1 Install OS X 10.4.3
2 go to Disk Uttil and set my HDD to use RAID0
3 Install 10.4.5
4 you will get RAID0 On This mobo running OSX 10.4.5

Has anybody else got RAID working on internal drives?

MSI 915G Combo

but now I change mb/cpu from 630/915G to 805/P5LD2-VM 945G

Is screwing it together really 'hand made' ?  

It looks like one of the Beantech clear cases that were all the rage a few years ago.  My friend had one and he said it was really annoying to work on or change out hardware.

I like the idea of painting the inside, that would probably be really cool.

It really me & My Friends "Hand Made" Case 555 and This Case design to easy for changing Hardware, In six month I change mobo and cpu for 3 time , first P4 531 , P4 630, and now I use PD 805

Does your RAID work with the Asus mobo as well?

Hello,

i got a question if you don´t care. I also have the asus p5ld2-vm with a intel pentium d930. I am thinking of getting 2 identical sata drives to give raid 0 a shot. I would like to boot from them directly - at this moment i am using 10.4.6 without any troubles, despite the fact that my system doesnt come back from sleep mode.

You mentioned that you have used raid on your old board but haven´t tried on the new asus. Please tell me if it works if you have already tried because i would only get the sata drives if it works.

Thanks in advance

Very nice setup! Thanks for showing it off!
