actually i can shrink it down, but due to the limitation of material and design flaw, it will be this big...
but no biggie coz i dont carry it around that often.....i use to transfer video files only....

- err, the usage of the acrylic stand ?
actually i wanted to use the motherboard stand, but couldnt find the exact length for it.
from there, i can shrink the width by about 30mm.

- the placing of the white LED which is blocking the airflow of the PCB of the HDD

- the messy wiring inside

- the black colour wasnt 'solid' enough....

actually, there a lot of room for improvement, depending on which are that you wish to explore.....
but overall, i think in terms of cooling and bling bling, it's good enough i guess

I didn't really notice the stand though... laugh.gif
Anyhow, the messy wiring ain't gonna affect much, but it's just not so nice if you look at it...
Seems I got problems viewing your pics again... doh.gif Streamyx... vmad.gif
It's way better than what I would have expected at the first place, well done AllnGap! notworthy.gif notworthy.gif
