Bug Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Crazy case! Really nice job on it! Are you booting off the RAID? Or a better question; Can you boot off the RAID?

G_G Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 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.

RiceTea Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Absolutely stunning!! Does RAID 0 work with your mobo (which?), bootable? Congrats anyway, one of the best cases and settings I´ve ever seen!

alka1ine Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 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.

icyderguru Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 on my old mobo RAID0 is 100% working but in new mobo I haven't try it yet 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 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/10904-my-os-x-box-with-acd20/#findComment-116603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
