oh ok but i still think you would want the warranty because these aren't the most reliable drives in the world and with an ssd there is almost no heat so i think that is the best choice for this computer.

Also i am almost certain that taking the drive out of the case voids the warranty. Instead i would opt for a ssd because they run really cool and the lower storage ones are actually cheaper than a velociraptor. Please correct me if i am wrong with any of these comments.
Tator Tot is right, the Ice Pack is useless apart from adapting it to 2.5". If it couldn't function without it, why would they sell it for servers etc without it? If it reallly needed it, they would have the whole thing covered in a thermal interface rather than just one point inside. It has been proven they can very easily run outside of it

And i don't care about the warranty, it is only £60 I am getting an SSD too.

Only £60? Far too much money...

£60 from someone on here compared to a brand new raptor which is £150 And compared to a 150gb ssd which would be nearer £200

Yeah, but if you void the warranty and it dies it's still expensive to replace even if you buy another one from the forums...

Dam you Royal Mail/UPS! I think it must have got caught up in the postal strikes. My cello teacher posted Snow Leopard to a friend here in the UK and it still hasn't arrived. How ridiculous. If it doesn't arrive my monday i will dig out the receipt and see what they have to say for themselves.
