I'm working on building a custom mini pc.
While I could use a notebook hard drive(too pricey for large capacity)... I would rather like to use a standard 3.5 HD. Only problem is with the 3.5" HD I would have to mount it vertically - to save space. So, it would be standing up long ways (the end with the connectors would be facing down to the bottom of the case).
Has anyone run into any problems/performace issues mounting HD's in positions other than standard horizontal position.
