A Positive Look at the Antec Nine Hundred (900) Case

[InfiniteDreamer]

The bottom right of the motherboard will be the location for the top panel LEDs and buttons. Only 1 of the cables will have enough length to make it and the other two being the reset switch and HDD LED needs another few inches to make it.

I looked a few months ago for a extension cable for them but I could not find any. If anyone knows where I can get some please direct.

I had to extend mine - just got some of the leads from an old case and soldered and heatshrunk the joints then resleeved the whole lead

After I file the edges of the cuts I plan on getting some Dupli-Color DA 1605 Flat Black to paint the inside of the case. I think a black chassis will turn out better. I wont be doing the side panels so where the hole is I will just get some masking tap and paint it with the paint or I will just use the tape to cover the side and only paint what will show though. The HDD chassis will be the more worrisome because they may scratch being put back into the chassis.

I was thinking about powder coating but I believe it will be far more expensive. Plus after about 3 or 4 coats of the flat black it should turn out nice. I just hope I dont scratch the HDD cages putting them back in. I may put masking tape on them when sliding them so they dont scratch.

I assume you mean spray paint and not brush on - I tried both and trust me - spraying gives a MUCH better finish - and is usually a lot quicker drying too.
As for the drive cages scratching after painting - i think its pretty much unavoidable - the cages are such a close fit - i chrome effected my drive cages and it deffo scratches on the sides as you slide it in/out - no big deal tho - as you can't see it once its in
