New builds are always fun :-D

You have any trouble setting up the 3TB external, or did the BIOS switch automatically?

Looks like a good rig! When you get a chance to "test out" the video card, I'm curious as to the performance. I just stuffed one of these in my rig at home and am looking for another video card for my wife's rig.

I believe that's the exact card I've got in mine. It's great :-)

I had no issues with the 3TB. I have a WD 3TB and a Toshiba 1TB running off the usb3.

Everything is running super cool as well.

Ugh, who knows when I'm gonna get online. Silverone is still trying to get me to try our Rift. No time for that either.

Excellent, glad to hear it :-) Saw my first single-drive 3TB's floating around the other day, and they all had warnings on them about how you had to set things up correctly to get them to register more than 2.2.
