Drive bay pump and res

Hey, I was thinking about buying the XPS Dual drive bay pump and reservoir to save a bit of space in my case and was just wondering what you guys thought of that model and drive bay ones in general.

I have a Swiftech pump/res and it works very well. But it should as it's a 10W DDC albeit with the standard inlet/outlet.

my brother got one, it had an intermittant pump fault so if it fails its a pain in the arse to get back up and running quick, i guess if you give it a 24 soak test you'll be fine.

They are crap and tend to break down a lot mate tbh.

TBH I personally think they are fine, i've a few m8's who are using them, and I have been using the stand alone XSPC pump/res and they have all been fine and worked great.

For a basic loop you should have no problems using one, just stick to high flow blocks and rads.
