So the title says it all really, If You were to make an OTT PC Is there a way you could water cool SSDs with a block or something that is purchasable on the web?

 

More of just a question

EK has a waterblock for Intel's pci-e SSD, but I don't know about any others.

Like 2.5 inch SSD?

 

I don't believe those exist nor would they be necessary for SATA III SSD' s.

don't/can't generate enough heat to ever make it worthwhile If you really must you could probably slap a RAM block on it, but it shouldn't make a difference.

I think you can watercool the pcie ssd's but that cost's shitloads.

I thought you might be able to get pcie ssd water blocks because they chuck out quite a lot of heat

But wasnt sure

Yes i did this to mine. I just stuck a custom water block I had made ( very small) and it somehow worked and looked pretty awesome :D.. TBH you can probably get any standard water block assuming it would fit.  Storage doesn't need water cooling by any means..  but for looks :)

It's not needed.  My case has no fans except the one in the PSU and the SSDs (4 of them) all sit fine with 0 air flow.  The WD Caviar Black also works fine with no air flow.

 

If you were ambitious enough, you could use some thermal tape and stick a couple SSDs to this: http://www.lytrondirect.com/store/cold-plates/?F_ValueIds=70

 

I use those to watercool my backplates on my X's.
