what are your immediate thoughts looking at this psu/ drives and bob in a box

[nobby]

you mean the bare exposed psu terminals will interfere with the break out board?

what i had planned on doing was unsheathing the main cables as they come in and running them around the bottom and up to the drives - the connections are all good as I have tested it all, just as yet not on the machine.

the break out board will float above the psu.

I flipping layed it all out like that before I bought the box, thinking that will be ok, as the drives are double sided taped to the box for heat sink? soak?
and the power inlet and switch were 2 inches from the main connector on the psu, so there was no mains wire run.

cock - bigger box or see how it goes?

I was more concerned about cables or other items dropping onto the live terminals during use. Some of those SMPS come with a plastic screen - did yours?

It could all run fine for years without issue, or it could get too hot, or it could have intermittant inference. Only time will tell.

For about the same price you could have picked up a PC case
