    Question RAID inquiry

    This will be used for data that needs to be running 24/7 pretty much. The real backup plan would be backing up data weekly/biweekly onto additional drives.

    Question 360mm aio question

    Can you link or post an image of it? Also, first time doing this AIO setup. I followed the instructions as per the installation steps from Arctics website. The brackets I setup on the MOBO are for the Ryzen 3,5,7 Series offset mounting. Should I revert to the AM4 style?
