I would highly recommend a 4 space rack, and lots of fans. I built my own system, and it is a 4 space rack, still it is running 114 degrees. thats with 3-4" fans and 3-2" fans. Now if you watercool you probably wouldnt need all the fans. but with a 2 or 2 space rack, you dont have room for much more than 1 dvd/cd and 1 hard drive. I definately recommend against the raid as I have tried it and it was nothing but a headache. Now, I am running a 100 gig on "c" with nothing but an os on it, and for the "d" drive on which I keep the programs & music files I have a 250 gig. This way I can reimage and be up running in 15 minutes if the Boot disk crashes. I have never had a "d" drive crash. Just a thought.....
