Hardware Installation Guide

2.1 Setting Up

1. Place the case upright on a flat, stable

surface.

2. Loosen the thumbscrews from the left side

panel. Remove by swinging panel out.

3. Loosen the thumbscrews from the right side

panel. Remove by swinging panel out.

Note: Do not use your fingernails to pry or lift

the panels.

4. Inside the case you should see a brown box

secured by a single screw. Inside the box

are parts and screws you may need during

installation. These parts and screws are as

follows:

A. Front panel keys (2)

B. 2.5” drive bay thumb screw (4)

C. Motherboard standoff (9; 6 preinstalled)

D. Motherboard / auxiliary screw (15)

E. Optical drive / 5.25”-to-3.5” adapter bracket screw / side filter screw (18)

2.2 Motherboard Installation

This manual does not cover CPU, RAM or expansion card installation. Please consult your

motherboard manual for specific mounting instructions and troubleshooting.

1. Make sure you have the correct I/O panel for your motherboard. If the panel provided

with the case isn’t suitable, please contact your motherboard manufacturer for the

correct I/O panel.

2. To remove the I/O panel, press the panel from the outside pushing towards the inside.

3. Line up your motherboard with the standoff holes, and remember which holes are lined

up. Not all motherboards will match with all the provided holes; this is normal, and will

not affect functionality.

4. Lift and remove motherboard.

5. Screw the brass standoffs into the threaded holes that line up with your motherboard. Do

not over-tighten the standoffs. Some standoffs may be preinstalled for your convenience.

6. Place your motherboard on the brass standoffs.

7. Fasten your motherboard to the standoffs with the provided Philips-head screws. Your

motherboard is now installed.

2.3

Internal 2.5” Device Installation

Note: If you are planning to install both 2.5” and 3.5” drives, you must install the 2.5” drive first.

Installing a 3.5” drive first will prevent you from installing the screws for a 2.5” drive.

To the left of the 3.5” hard drive cage is a space to mount a 2.5” drive. To utilize this drive

mount:

1. Place the drive and hold on top of the four raised mount points.

2. Locate the thumbscrews in the bag labeled “for 2.5 HDD”. Use these screws to secure the

drive.

2.4 Internal 3.5” Device Installation

This case offers a unique hard disk mounting system. There are two dedicated

hard disk compartments right under the external 5.25” drive cage. Each

compartment can hold two hard disk drives.

1. Open the side panel as described in Setting Up. You will find four metal

mounting rails with soft silicone grommets preinstalled inside each of the

HDD compartments. Each drive rail is fastened inside the compartment

with a thumb screw. You will need two mounting rails to mount a HDD. One

rail is fastened to the upper wall of the compartment and the

other rail is fastened to the lower wall of the compartment.

2. Remove both the upper and the lower mounting rails by

loosening the thumb screws.

3. Fasten the rails to the sides of the HDD through the silicone

grommets with the special screws provided.

Note: Don’t over-tighten. Over-tightening the screws will harm the

vibration and noise reduction qualities of the silicone grommets.

4. Slide the HDD assembly into the compartment.

5. The connectors of the drive must face the left side panel (away

from the intake vent).

6. Use the thumb screws to fasten the HDD assembly into the

case.

7. Find the appropriate power connector on the PSU and connect

the device.

8. Find the appropriate data cable and connect the hard drive to

the motherboard.

2.5

External 3.5” Device Installation

To install a floppy drive, card reader or other external 3.5” device using the 5.25” to 3.5”

adapter:

1. Locate the 5.25” to 3.5” adapter bracket.

2. Place the device in the adapter and fasten with the screws provided.

3. Install the drive rails to the adapter as described in the External 5.25” Device Installation

section.

4. Slide the drive into the drive bay until you hear a click.

5. Connect the appropriate data and power cables from the device to the motherboard.

2.6 External 5.25” Device Installation

There are three external 5.25” drive bays.

1. Carefully remove the plastic cover and metal

plate covering the drive bay.

2. Make sure the clip on the end of the drive

rail is angled away from the device and

facing forward. Mount a plastic drive rail on each side of the 5.25” device.

3. Slide the device into the drive bay until you hear a click.

4. Connect the appropriate data and power cables from the device to the motherboard.

2.7

Cable Organizer

Instead of running all the power cables into the motherboard compartment, the cables can be

organized between the motherboard and right side panel.

1. Remove both side panels.

2. Choose the cables you would like to hide or pass through the organizer behind the

motherboard tray.

3. Run the cables to the organizer and use the cable ties to hold them in place.

Connecting the Front I/O Ports

3.1

USB 2.0 Ports

3.2

USB 3.0 Port

There is a pre-routed cable for the front-panel USB 3.0 port. Plug the back end of this cable into

an on-board USB 3.0 port on your motherboard to enable the front USB 3.0 port.

3.3

AC’97 / HD Audio Ports

There is an Intel® standard 10-pin AC’97 connector and an Intel® 10-pin HDA (High Definition

Audio) connector linked to the front panel of the case.

You can connect either the AC’97 or the HDA connector, depending on the model of the

motherboard. Locate the internal audio connectors from your motherboard or sound card and

connect the corresponding audio cable. Consult your motherboard or sound card manual for

the pin-out positions. Even if your system supports both audio standards, you may only use

one connector.

3.4

Power Switch / Reset Switch / Hard Disk Drive / Power LED Connectors

Connected to your front panel are LED and switch leads for power, reset, HDD and Power LED

activity. Attach these to the corresponding connectors on your motherboard. Consult your

motherboard manual for specific pin header locations. For LEDs, colored wires are positive ( + ).

White or black wires are negative ( – ). If the LED does not light up when the system is powered

on, try reversing the connection. For more information on connecting LEDs to your

motherboard, see your motherboard manual.

Note: Polarity (positive and negative) does not matter for switches.

3.5

Rewiring Motherboard Header Connectors

If a case connector does not have the same pin-out as the corresponding motherboard header,

it may need to be reconfigured. Examples could be for your USB header, audio input header, or

some other front panel connector such as the Power Button connector.

Before performing any work, please refer to your motherboard manual or your motherboard

manufacturer’s website to be sure of the pin-out needed for your connector. We strongly

recommend making a notated drawing before beginning work so that you can recover if your

work is disturbed.

1. Determine which wires you need to remove in order

to rewire your plug to match the USB pin-outs on

your motherboard (refer to your motherboard manual).

Working on one connector at a time, use a very small

flathead screwdriver or similar tool to lift up on the black

tab located beside the gold posts (squares). This will

allow you to easily slide out the pins from the USB plug.

2. Working carefully so as not to damage the wires,

connectors, or pins, slowly remove the pin from the

connector. Repeat these steps for each wire you need to change.

Slowly reinsert the pin into the correct slot of the connector, then snap closed the black

tab that was lifted in step 1. Repeat these steps for each wire you need to change.

Cooling System

4.1 TriCool™ Fan

There is one 120 x 25 mm TriCool™ fan pre-installed at the rear of the case. This fan is installed

so air will be blown out of the case. It has a 3-speed switch that lets you choose between quiet,

performance or maximum cooling. This switch is located at the rear of the case. The default fan

speed setting is low.

Size: 120 x 25 mm TriCool™ fan

Rated Voltage: DC 12V

Operating Voltage: 10.2V – 13.8V
