Can the front drive cage be removed to make room for a 240mm rad?

I've got a Thermochill 120.2 in the front of mine. I had to take out the module at the bottom, replace it with 3 separate 5.25 covers, drill out the supporting shelf and it left me with enough space to fit an optical and a Hard drive. The hardest part was trying to tuck the PSU cables away, with hindsight I'd have got a short modular unit.

Aqua PC's and Overclockers do it.

Thanks! :)

Afraid so. It's not an issue for me because I'm a one HD, One Optical kind of guy :D. I've just sorted out a fan controller to go in front of the HD (a Kama Meter), I used one of the SilverStone SDP06 5.25" Extension Bracket's to mount the HD behind it, I've literally no space left now, looks like i'll have to invest in one of Lechuck's rad boxes if I want to upgrade.

Nope, buy another remove the mobo board and bolt them together.
That's how Lian-Li got the 343B idea.
I'm doing it now with another of their cases. Heaps of rad and drive room.

Can one fit a PA120.3 in the front if all the stuff (the HDD Rig) in the front is removed?
