That is correct. They cannot be submerged. At the moment I am debating whether to use the SSD in my main rig, buying a new SSD, or just using a HDD. The one in my main rig is new, its the corsair force GT 60GB one. I dont feel like dishing out another $100+ dollars in storage :rolleyes:

Update #9 I left off with the failed leak test, I have gone through and re-glued all the edges. I started the new leak test on Sunday night. It has been leak free for 3 days so far. If nothing shows up by Friday, I will begin the leak test on the mineral oil side. As far as progress goes, I...

Haha, thanks man. :thumbsup: Awesome! I'm glad I can inspire you. That's how I got started on this, looking at all the other mods. It made me really want to do one too. Leak test part 1 = FAIL I took the silicon off the fish side so I can apply some more weld-on. I hope that will fix...

I couldn't get a picture of the hole being cut out because I was doing the cutting, but here it is after. Got a very nice shot of the hole being trimmed up by my brother. And that's all she wrote! Oh, and if you didn't notice, I got a brand new camera! Canon EOS Rebel XS. Now I can give...

Update #7 So, I left off last having completed mounting the radiators to the rear of the tank. The last big step is to get the lid fitted for the PSU and motherboard tray. Trip to the local hardware store to pick up a tap, jig-saw blade, and some bolts to mount the lid to the tank. The top...

After we marked where I wanted the mounts to go, it was down-hill from there. The welding didn't take long at all. I am going to wait a day or two before I put the full weight of the radiators on the mounts, hope they hold up I also got the inside of the fish side caulked with...

Now, you may be asking, "But how are those going to work?" Take a look at the radiator mounts. Now look at the brackets with the mounting hardware. Now you may be asking, "But what about the bottom brackets, they look different?" Well, we had to make special brackets for those. Thanks...
