The plan was to finish everything this weekend. Now...I gotta wait until the RAM arrives. I want to be able install it properly & don't think I can do this with the motherboard installed. Maybe it's no big deal. It would be great to have everything ready for Monday; just plug in the RAM & go. But, I've planned & waited a long time so what's a few more days?
I have some old DDR2 RAM (removed after an upgrade) that is about the size of the incoming Patriot RAM. It looks like the Patriot RAM will be easy to install with a little interference but would clear the fan without too much effort.
The Solo came with 4 pairs of HDD mounting slides. I have two 300Gb data drives to install & figured all along that I'd try the suspended mount 1st but can always fall back to the slides. I'll try to get some good close-up pics for you.
