Random obscure survey...

Post by Dave »

This is ONLY for people who use a QL in a case other than a QL. It's not for BBQLers, QxO, Q68, Thor etc. users.

Please comment or post photos if your answer doesn't fit neatly into the above, or if you just want to share.

Only people who have a QL motherboard or Aurora and maybe a Gold Card or Super Gold Card and a couple of other boards in a different case...

Thank you.

(Mods: I would have put this survey in the "Other" section, but no poll creation there.)

Dave,

I'd rather express my wishes in LITERS than in inches...

This may be a problem.

I did not know they called them anything else.

*googles*

HEY!

2.5" = 6.7cm
3.25" = 10cm.

None of the above unless a 2.5 inch CF card adapter counts.

That counts as "none of the above" as it does in an expansion bay.... ;)

I've added two options to cover those scenarios.

Why ist there no option for "hard disk" in a survey about hard drives?

I have a real harddisk with "Steinkopf" Interface inside a minitower with QL mainboard and GoldCard.

Hard disk, hard drive, same thing. :D I generally use "drive" instead of "disk" because drive covers platter and flash drives. Disk only means platter drives.

Exactly, so why not add the hard drive/disk option to the survey? ;)
