I will add a little comment to this point, from a few experiments we did here since our last mail of Oct. 18th. 1/ do not put net6501 directly one above another, especially if fitted with regulard disks. Heating will be a real problem. 2/ we did cut some small cardboard pieces to increase inter-boxes space. With something around 1.5 cm of free space between the boxes, the heating gets back to "usual" (around 40 Celsiuses).
