Flexi-Drive Bay System | Antec 902 instruction

2.4 Flexi-Drive Bay System

The Nine Hundred Two comes with nine 5.25” external drive bays at the front of the case. There are two HDD cages pre-installed inside the bottom six 5.25” bays. Each HDD cage occupies three consecutive 5.25” drive bays and can house three hard disk drives. For maximum flexibility you can mount the HDD cage anywhere within the external drive bays (i.e., you are not limited to the bottom six bays).

Possible drive bay combinations include but are not limited to:

•External 3 x 5.25” + internal 6 x HDD

•External 6 x 5.25” + internal 3 x HDD

•External 9 x 5.25”

There is a middle fan bracket pre-installed on one of the HDD cages. You can install a 120mm fan to the bracket so the air will be blown into the case to use the HDD cage as a cooling duct to cool your graphics card or CPU. This will prevent the installation of hard drives into this cage, however. Remove the middle fan bracket from the HDD cage if you decide to mount your hard drives into this cage.

• External 3 x 5.25” + internal 3 x HDD + cooling duct
