2.6INTERNAL 3.5” DEVICE INSTALLATION

With the front bezel facing you, swing the front door open. It can swing 270º so the door is parallel with the side of the case. You can see there are four 5.25” and one 3.5” external drive bays. Inside the case there are two 3.5” drive cages, which can house up to six hard drives.

Note: We recommend using the lower HDD cage to maximize cooling and quiet computing.

Upper HDD Installation

1.Remove the thumbscrew holding the upper HDD cage.

2.Pull the HDD cage from its position by pulling the ring toward you.

3.There are two HDD trays inside the cage. Squeeze the metal clips on each side of the tray and slide the tray out.

4.Mount your hard drive into the drive tray with the special screws provided. Don’t over-tighten the screws as this will reduce the vibration and noise dampening ability of the silicone grommets.

Note: Always mount the HDD with the thicker side of the silicone grommets facing up.

5.Slide and lock the tray back into the cage.

6.Slide the cage back into the case and fasten the thumbscrew.

7.Find the right Molex or SATA connector on the power supply and connect it to the hard drive.

8.Repeat the same procedure for the other drives.

Lower HDD Installation

1.Remove the thumbscrew holding the lower HDD cage.

2.Pull the HDD cage from its position by pulling the ring towards you.

3.You can mount up to four hard drives inside the cage. They are mounted vertically with the silicone grommets sitting at both sides.

4.Mount your hard drive into the drive cage with the special screws provided. Don’t over-tighten the screws as this will reduce the vibration and noise dampening ability of the silicone grommets.

Note: Always mount the HDD with the thicker side of the silicone grommets facing up.

5.Slide the cage back into the case and fasten the thumbscrew.

6.Find a Molex or SATA connector on the power supply and connect it to the hard drive.
