Now to figure out the routing of the cables.
How big is the big motherboard cable? Will it fit?
Looks like it sticks out into the drive cage area.
That's a big cable!
With the cables and all the water cooling gear, space is looking VERY tight!
Can't power up the SSD with it's current location, the power cable bends the wrong way. So we will move the SSD to the lower location in the rear panel cage. That should allow the SSD to be away from the radiator enough to give access, and also allow the power cable to connect easily without major modifications.
It works!
More cable clutter. We'll have to tame that with some clever routing and some twist ties.
Now that the spot under the drive cage is free, maybe I can put something else there, like fan wires and a fan power board?
Maybe I need to buy or build shorter cables?
Hmm... I like routing the cable through the oval cut-out, that helps with strain relief.
Tight fit for cables between power supply and hard drive cage.
Do I have enough cables connected before installing drive cage again?
