Well, we've known that heat sinks helped the DDC's since we started using them in 2006. Some of our early high ambient bench units got the RAM heat sink treatment.
I'm also aware other members like Bei and Naekuh did very nice, specialized DDC heat sinks before us, so respect, mon.
With more temperature complaints from customers lately on the DDC, we decided to offer something ourselves. It does involve removing the stock plastic base entirely, and it is a little technical to assemble (nothing you guys can't handle, but maybe a little complex for others). Best of all, it does help with temps.
No argument from me that D-5 does run cooler and tends to have a higher reliability rate. But you can't fit a D-5 in a single 5.25" bay, either.

Don't say can't Tim. With a can of Crisco and a roll of duct tape there is just about nothing I cannot accomplish.
