I am planning a Buffalo III build with the Legato 3.1. I am considering various enclosure options. I need, but I cannot find, the mounted (on-chassis) heights of the various modules. Would someone kindly provide the mounted heights of the following modules/configurations:
-Buffalo III with Tridents
-Buffalo III with Tridents mounted on Legato 3.1
-Placid HD
-Placid HD BP

Thanks!

Just to be very clear on the first two items in the post above:
- Height of a fully stacked Buffalo III (Tridents + AVCC)
- Height of a fully stacked Buffalo III on top of the Legato 3.1

Maybe I should ask for the above information in another way:

Even in a layout with the following:
- Buffalo III (with Tridents and AVCC) stacked on a Legato 3.1
- Sidecar stacked on top of the S/PDIF-4

the heat sinks of the Placid HD and Placid HD BP will still be the tallest components in the chassis, right?

From the parts list, the heatsinks are 1.5 inches tall. So their height as mounted in an enclosure will be about 1.75 inches or more, depending on the spacers. Thus, enclosure depth will need to be at least 1.75 or more. Correct?

I realize keeping things cool in the enclosure is another issue.

For future reference the vertical heights of BIII assembled components are:

Legato 3.1 only - 1.10 inches
Buffalo III with AVSS - 1.15 inches
Buffalo III / Legato stacked - 1.90 inches
Placid HD and HD BP each - 2.05 inches

All heights are measured from chassis floor using the standard mounting hardware supplied with the kits.
