    Will you spent more on those silverstone bays than you did on the case itself eh?

    They're $50 a piece... I was looking at them for my new case but they're just too expensive.

    Looks nice however.

    I had the HD cages and case powdercoated as well, a Black Satin Semi-Gloss. I didn't like the reviews of dealing with spray paint, that easily scratches.

    I will have the two original HD cages, powdercoated black, with the Antec Blue LED Tricools and all necessary hardware for sale, soon.

    Well I finally have almost all of my parts and did a full tidy wires job on my 900 this morning. The only thing I have yet to get is a Blu-Ray player, but that should be in the next week or so. (just so you know what the extra 2 wires are for below the optical drive.

    My one annoyance with how this turned out is the front panel audio cable. I tried to hide it behind the mobo tray, but where it's located, I just didn't have enough room between the edge of the mobo and the I/O plate.

    I have to say this was the longest and most frustrating mod I've done, but I think the results are great.



    My casters. I'm on the carpet for now, but hope to remedy that soon.

    Cheers CyberDruid . The only thing that doesn't look quite right is the front of the Zalman fan controller, I might have to make a new front for it although this looks rather nice:-

    Its a Sunbeam Rheobus Extreme Fan Controller.

    Love the work on your current project, nice music on your youtube vid

    Spend 70 bucks for a HDD cage. Spray paint it and smile every time you scratch it.
