I use flat angle brackets from the hardware store. I can't remember
if I get the 1.5" or the 2". Just get four of them, and screw them
onto the sides of the drives. This will hold one drive above the
other with a gap depending on the size of bracket you bought.
The sleds provided by Apple, only allow about 1/4" between 2
Seagate HDs (750GB and 500GB ones).
Just doesn't seem like enough ... especially considering the
circuit board on the bottoms that are exposed.
I had 2 x 120GBs stacked using the apple bracket in my DA, along with
320 and 500GB SATA drives single layered next to them. I had no
issues with heat with either a 533 or 933 QS processor in there. When
I put a dual 1.2GHz G4, THEN I had heat issues and ran with the door
open.
FWIW,
