My Leakshield and Splitty9 Active arrived yesterday
Hmm.. when you sacrifice filters over airflow and work in a dusty attic
So full stripdown and cleanout required.
Took out the rads and I had a Mayhem's blitz set up on the shelves so rinsed them out, hoovered them out and filled with Blitz P1 overnight. Bit of crud came out but nothing massive.
I then rebuilt a loop out of the case and have started the Blitz P2 stage - been running for about 4 hours.
In the meantime, case got stripped completely, hoovered, wiped down and as I was taking pictures, spotting more dust so I went to work with some cotton earbuds
Looked clean enough so time to start putting bits back in starting with my trusty AquaComputer Hubby7
then the AquaComputer Aquaero 6LT
To hold it in place I use plastic standoffs:
Moving around the back, I have one of my latest AquaComputer toys, namely a SPLITTY9 ACTIVE which I have mounted above the HDD drive bay as it takes SATA power and I just need a single cable run from the Seasonic to power the HDDs and Fan Hub.
HDDs then were taken out of caddies, wiped down and reassembled dust free:
Trying to keep on top of cables as I go:
Meanwhile, Mr Mayhem's Blitz P2 is working away
Drain, Flush, Fill, Drain,Flush, Drain - Then I'll strip the loop down, disassemble the D5 and Aqualis 150 for a proper clean and then I can add this to the setup:
