i've seen some posts about this over at http://www.tivocommunity.com/
Sounds like a great idea though... the case of the tivo is easy to cut. they have a new fanless tower cooler that mounts externally that would make it rather silent (sans the drives). I have used Dynamat Extreme on the drives and the inside of my DirecTivo with Dual 160GB drives.... it really reduces the noise quite a bit.
i changed out the fans with the ones that came with the 'cool breaze' bracket from www.Weakness.com and the fans are much lower in dB.
good luck.

Thanks, Sam. Great info. I never thought about the Dynamat -- seems like a natural in addition to the water cooling.
