Using SATA drive externally and sitting on PC case

[Rikki]

Hi folks,

Just got an F1 Samsung 1tb and am currently running it naked sitting on top of my PC case using the Gigabyte mobo's external SATA connectors.

Seems to work fine and dandy at the moment but I was wondering if running it sitting on the top of the PC case was good idea from an EMF standpoint as its right above the PSU.

The PC's in the corner so it isnt going to be knocked, or fall off so thats not a worry but having it perched right about the power supply is what I am currently wondering about.

Thanks folks,

Rik

Im going to pop it inside the case tomorrow as Ive found a problem anyway (made a seperate post now).

Cheers for the reply mate.
