Nimise is right, the HD is within the lid, if you use a solid state you can drop it in but a regular hard drive would have screwed up seek times because the oil slows the head's movement.

While that is true, it takes quite a while for any decent level system to really heat the oil, and when you attach a radiator the temps are typically lower than air or watercooling, phase change is cooler obviously but bulky, ugly and not a practical application for most people.

My last comment was for MrHappyface and gats1788. Give them credit for being very creative.

You sound jealous about the fact that you did not think of this cool (pun intended)idea before they did?

OMG that's awesome

The HD is in the top(lid thing), you can't see it but I know it is not in the oil.

Dude, look again. That's a cd rom on top, the hd IS in the oil.

you'd never have to worry about dust getting into your components :P

to cool the oil put it in the freezer

just to add, having seen the end of the video, the air bubbles providing the air was cool, might just provide enough cooling for the oil but im not sure
