bah, i don't want more external cases dangling off of crap.  plus, looking at
the drive bays, i don't see that i will really be changing the airflow that
much, especially if i have 5.25" faceplates to seal up the drive bays, so i
should be fine.

besides, you've seen my sparc20, i've got two more of those fans you know. ;)
