Here are pics of my rig, as Zardon suggested I put them up:



is the rig... those white swirly thingies are hard drive coolers, and i have bl00 LED's inside them (which is what the purple wires on top of the top cooler are for)



is a picture of the main part of the computer - including the crazy wiring I have going to keep all of my IDE stuffs connected

Anyway, thanks fornicatarachnid for hosting these!

Geez tosh. I thought that you'd be a "plain Jane" about your computer. I wouldn't have though you'd be extravagent. I don't like all that lighting and hard drive cooling stuff. Hell, mine aren't even warm to the touch. Well nevermind. You just surprised me.

You should vinyl dye the HD coolers and pick up one of black bezels for your Live Drive.

Well actually, those hard drive coolers are there more because I filled every available 3.5" spot possible rather than I needed em Personally, I like the lighting stuff because I think it looks cool, lol. I do intend to paint the hard drive coolers and the Livedrive bezel, but those are projects for another day

I think you can pickup the bezel for the live drive for around $20.00. It looks mighty spiffy too.
