JK, you can have six full size HD's in a MacPro by utilising the DVD bays. I agree it's a nice idea, I went that route with the G5 Power Mac. I discovered that the box is huge and to maintain accessibility you need a lot of room around the computer. To me it's a wildly expensive solution if all you want is an absence of wires. I have mounted my main i7 4 core on a false wall, the wires are all hidden behind the board. The 8'x4' 18mm MDF board cost £15. I have my screens on VESA mounts screwed to the board, and my shelves are screwed to the board, so I have a clear desk, and all the gubbins like USB hubs, cabling and the inevitable scores of PSU bricks are all hidden out of sight. My UPS is the only large item on my desk in the corner. There are eight HD's, all working in the picture, plus my old original 2010 Mac mini which is acting as a server at the moment, that may change soon. I am finding the server unnecessary and a distraction, although it does have it's uses and it was an interesting experiment. Just my two cents...

The Mac software for illustration and image editing most originated on the Mac and then migrated to the PC so the early adopters tended to be Mac based. In most cases good artists don't make good techies, to use a PC for anything but the most basic tasks requires far more technical skill than to do the equivalent on a Mac. In the early days I saw the difference and hated getting my hands dirty delving into the inner workings of a PC operating system. A friend started an Apple dealership nearby and I just had to have one. That was 1988. I have built a few PC's over the years, but always got rid of them or they languish in the loft. I have lost count of the number of Mac's I have had, large and small. The current i7 Mac mini I use is well good enough for all I need, small, quiet, fast and powerful. It processes video very fast compared with my old G5 water cooled tower which had 5 drives and 2, 2.7 Processors. Sorry I can't help suggest where to find Lr5, it will probably be there it will be a ZIP file so if you do a search for a .zip from the last few days you should find it?

Robert - That is the most compulsively organized computer setup I have ever seen !!!  I have all my cables on a basket that I clamped to the backside of my desk, with each of them snaking up to their own peripheral device
