To start off I bought 4 mesh bags to put the 65% heartfelt beads (1 lb total) in and tied them up , have them hanging on brass hooks inside the coleman 70 qt. 5 day cooler (freebie - woohoo) .I have a Western Digital Caliber III on the way . I was going to stand it on end but have since decided to place it the way it was designed to be . I will make some shelves out of Spanish Cedar to sit on the ledge inside the cooledor . It will live in my basement . Thank you for the advice board members .
