  • ok so your computer is running cooler

    but your drives have twice as many read write errors. slowing down the overall performance.

    also its not easy to do with an 80 pin BLUE ended cable.

    just buy a premade 80pin round cable for 2 bucks...

    • impossible

      OMFG, of course there won't be a slow down or data errors, you guys crazy? Electric pulses will still be running through the cable, such a short distance won't make any diference, you guys really are mithys fanatics... lol

    • mithys fanatics ?

      He just happens to have either benchmarking experience, or knowledge on hardware and electro-physics that you don't have.
      And he doesn't even mention the risks you take to ruin your cable playing around with a cutter...
      Anyways, now that SATA is widely available, you don't even need to bother no more...

  • dont try it...

    DONT do it, the reason that the cable is the way it is, is that there is 1 signal line-1 ground line every time to seperate all the lines and reduce the errors. sorry for my english, anyway if you do your reading speed will reduce..

  • W.O.T.

    Waste of time.
    Just make sure they lay flat and not blocking air flow.
    If you like them rolled up?, just roll the flat ribbon cable up and tape it. (BTW) that's electrical tape not duct tape.
    This is a well made video but the project is worthless.

  • Hey man ...

    just get SATA !

  • Or you....

    can just go out and buy a pre-made set and save yourself the headache of screwing up the flat cable and having to do it over again!(looks better too.)

  • Not impressed

    Just go to your local computer store and buy round ide cables. You can also get them for the floppy drive. One star.

  • seems

    like if this was such a good idea, the manufacturers would have made them that way already? I like the way it looks, cleans up the case a lot. Is the better cooling thing because of increased airflow without blockage from the IDE cables? Also seems you should put a disclaimer for those who would end up cutting their cables and causing shorts, frying the mobo or the hard drive?

    • Good point madmedic...

      1- The manufacturers doesn't make it like that because it's cheaper for them the standard ones but also you can buy them on stores. 2- Yes, your right. 3- In my point of view only people with a minimal experience will try this so they already know that kind of things but i apreciate your advice! Thanx for the comment and sorry for some ortographic mistakes! :)

  • Lol,

    Just get SATA ;s so much better and a 10th of the width of IDE lol.

  • DONT USE THIS MOD

    If you bind up an IDE cable (what they call the 'big' wires) you will cause heat to build up when you use your hard drive or disk drives.

    IF THESE WIRES OVERHEAT, THEY CAN CATCH ON FIRE. BYE BYE COMPUTER.

  • go out and buy...

    an colour oil cooling system and a n clear side panel for your tower...now that does look the business...This method will damage your computer and cause it to run slower...use at your own risk is my advice...check out my vids to proove i know what im talkin about!!
    good concept, useless info tho...Sorry man if you dint already know it, but well done on your producer rewards!

  • Don't try it

    There is a reason why the IDE cable's have been manufactured that way. To avoid EMS interference. This will cause you problems like slow data transfer due to EM Noise in line.

  • Round cables $2 each

    I have blue, red, or yellow cables up for grabs.

  • hmm

    wont that just make it hotter, cause when they are wraped toghter and tape on it it will isollate the heat.. so it's better not to play with the cabels

  • lol

    why would you want to clean up your cpu tower? the average person never needs to open it. if you know what your doing and want to speed up you pc just go buy some RAM,Better Graphics card or a slave hard drive. doing this is time consuming, dangerous, and harmful to your computer. people, you have to remember, they dont do these types of things for a reason. besides its not like you have to look inside your pc and think"its ugly", a "cooler" computer want run any faster. and since when do they over heat?

    • overheating occurs quite often

      i have a gaming computer and it used to overheat alot until i added another 3 fans. im at 7 including power supply and graphics card.

      remember a high performance computer needs high performance parts.

    But you can buy these already made which are also more reliable and save you LOTS of time.
