hmm...how is the 2.9tb different from the regular 2.8tb?
can we talk about this on this part of the forum? i hope so cos im doin it.
yeah is the 2.9 one bigger? are there any additiional mods you need to make to make it fit or work? all wires and coolant pipes and stuff fit straight up, like its plug and play?

I keep thinking about taking to the stock TB on my VR with a dremel to take those ramps up, would be interested is it actually makes any appreciable difference. Same goes for the 2.9TB.
