I took some pictures of my Shuttle PC. It is a lot smaller than yours, but it's a real fast machine and has everything I need.

I have only two HDs since I have a large RAID 5 NAS storage for my valued data and DVD RAM as backup for my NAS backup...

Nice Thank you for the pics. I've never built a shuttle.

Me either. What are the advantages(if any) of building a shuttle? Just size? Good for PVR?

I'd like to buy a small sized PC since a long time, because I do not need a PC with a big case, since I do not make a lot extensions over the PC life cycle. So why a large PC case. I still have a few MidiTower PC's (Pentium 3 Dual CPU systems), but in the next few weeks I'll retire 2 of this systems.

The positive point with the Shuttle PCs is in my opinion the good cooling concept. My Shuttle does not have any problems with temperature. I also have a MSI booksize PC and this form factor has more problems with cooling since the PC case has only a small height. The Shuttles have a real good quality and most of the systems have a performance comparable with a normal desktop PC. The Shuttle flagship the SD39 is not slower than a desktop PC with the same configuration and supports Core2Quad. My SD32 is a little bit "smaller" choice (the case is ~1/3 cheaper than the SD39 and it is fast enough for me, I do not need a C2Q).

My Shuttle has everything I need USB (every PC has this), FireWire 400, Gigabit LAN and HD sound. Since my demands to a sound card are not too high the onboard sound is perfect for me, but I could plug a PCI sound board in my Shuttle since the PCI slot is free. Currently I use the slot plate of the PCI slot for 2 additional USB ports. My shuttle has 8 USB ports, this is not bad for such a small PC.

It's still a town but treated like it's a rural route.

Thanks rolling that is good information to know, I was completely unaware of this situation.

From what i remember reading the size of the case also relates to "thermal headroom" and airflow efficiency - additionally as large fans can be fitted their rotational speed can be lowered for the same airflow - as a result My DELL Dim.9200 (desktop) is as quiet as a lap top - you say ther are no heat issues with a shuttle but what about the sound?
It seems the mainly comparible Quiet computers are Macs - UNFORTUNATELY unless you are living in a permanently cold climate you'll be lucky to avoid various problematic overheating issues - look how many different generations of Macbook there have been in a couple of years for eg.. Of course new customers are generally unaware of this as Apple make M$ look positively philanthropist when its comes to propaganda,deceit and greed added to the fact the majority of Mac customers don't even really use a computer - its just bought for show

From your description its sounds more like having the limitations of a Laptop (tho cheaper i guess) little room for additional internal HDD , optical drives ,card reader,bigger more powerful Graphics card etc all of which would cost more (cf internal) if you wanted to buy them as externals and defeating the object of a small sized box.I agree it may be fine for your specific needs but i suspect its a niche product (?)

I recall that dell, and I believe Acer had issues with laptops overheating and either bursting into flame or exploding under certain conditions.

And that was a separate issue to the exploding SONY batteries.

The SD32 is not very loud, the fan of the chipset it the loudest fan, that kan be read in a lot reviews about the SD32, and the reviews tell the truth. At the moment I do not have the time and the joy to exchange the fan, I read in a shuttle froum there are people changing the chipset fan and cooling device against a larger passive cooling device (I guess somethinf from Zalman!?) and the do not have any problems qwhen the chipset graphic is not used.

For me I do not see any limitations, I have 2 HDDs in it "only with 250GB size since I do not need larger HDDs. My data storage will be done to a 1TB NAS and additional backuped to DVD RAM.
since I have more than one PC I have the components I need external. I have one USB card reader, and a collection of optical drives. And for me the graphics card is powerful enough. A 7950GT with 512MB is engough for me. If I'd would like to have a 8800GTS or GTX or whatever needint 2 slots, I'd have bought a Shuttle SD39.

Sure it may be a nice product, I never said it is not. But Shuttles are so popular you can get Shuttles almost all over the world. The most positive thing of my Shuttle is you need only a small place for your PC, instead of the place for a big tower. For example I like rolling56 machine, it is cool and I like the silver case, looks really great, but I would never need 10 "slots" for 5.25 drives. If you need all your CD and DVD, and BD and HD DVD drives at the same time, it is perfect. But I do not need that, that is my reason for a Shuttle.

CD Speed will not show all my drives Not sure why it will show 8 of them but all my other programs show all of them. Anyone know how to fix it? I posted my problem so Erik will see it

DVDFab Platinum shows all of them though.

Yes 3 HDD's

lol thanks Jim. It's nice to have most all my drives just an arms length away. All 15 of my drives are in a case and ready to go to work for me

I'm going to try to burn 2 DL's at the same time from .iso files i made last night

The reason I asked was because I had the same problem before when CD-DVD Speed wouldn't see all of my 10 drives, whereas InfoTool showed them. I deduced it to chipset limitation and BIOS versions on the Silicon Image 680A-based PCI-IDE cards. With the nForce3 250Gb motherboard, all 10 drives would only been seen when 8 were on 2 PCI-IDE cards and 2 on onboard primary channel ONLY. Any other combinations would NOT work. I tried the same configuration on a nForce4 motherboad, it did NOT work, only 8 were seen, irregardless of setup.

With the current setup (4 on PCI-IDE card and 4 onboard), everything works fine. However, if the Pioneer 112D is paired up with the 111D on the same channel on the PCI-IDE card, neither drive is seen. Paired the 111D with the Optiarc 7170A, it's fine. This is using the latest non-RAID BIOS and driver.

So you may have to play with drives' configuration a bit.

Well i only have 1 IDE channel on my mobo so this is what i guess i'm stuck with. It's the last (bottom) PCI slot that is not listed in CD Speed. I get an option when booting up to configure the cards.

So Erik Deppe is going to tell me the same thing?
