Just leave it running for a week on 24/7 and see if anything goes wrong....
I leave most things on for weeks at a time - just to check.

The Sata maxi raid faiiled on me last night!
Was doing some heavy rendering in AE and all of the sudden after 6 hours, the machine thermaled on me, I think. The on button was still on but everything went black, I pushed the on button on again an everything came back, for about 3 seconds, I pushed it on again and the same thing happened!
I turned off the machine, took out one of the 3 drives (storage one) and it came back. I'm about to go back to rendering and see if I run into the same problems.
I called Promaxx tech support and they said either it is a power issue or a heat issue or both and that they will test it out more.
Could be that my radeon card's fan is less than a centimeter away from my sata card?

Ahhh yes - heat and power...Originally Posted by litemover
The raptor drives run quite hot.
My 10k Atlas IV scsi drives seemed to be much cooler last time i checked.
They are a much better bet for internal mounting.
I was wondering how that drive mounting solution would effect the airflow and temperature of the air to the processors. I am still going to go with the G5 jam and if I ever need more I will find some kind of external case for the hard drives.

SataMaxi thermaled out with 2 drives. I think the furthest drive back is near a heat sensor.
If it isn't, then this solution will not work for the raptors at least.
Failed after less than 1 hr running 2 layers of 720p content.
Sorry for the hype.

Thanks for posting the problem.

these internal sata solutions are horrible.Originally Posted by tylerr
they dont work.
they wont work unless they do some real engineering.
christian's computers crashed during recent shows because of heat and cabling issues.
