does that mean you are placing the rad on the bottom and not upwards like I have it?
that would certainly be awkward no?
As for the drives do they not fit becuase they are larger than mine?

Rad will be facing upwards.

ah I see.Thought you were putting in a bigger rad.
thats clever though cause at least you get to keep your drive bays
mine are all but gone
How about getting one of those Mountain Mods HD caddies That attach to a fan opening? If you cut it down then you could have the HD mounted off the top radiator fan in the hanging down position. On my A16 I used a piece of foam to sit the rad on the floor, used 2 pump anti vibration mounts to secure it to the case (drilled them into the shroud) and that left me with enough space to mount a raptor and an optical, very, very tight, just make sure you've got a modular psu...or it's even worse. Hope this helps.
