Sorry about triple posting, but i want to break the posts up for people with slower internet. Well here goes part 3: drive bays. Im going to pitch the idea of making em with mesh and go with plexi. Heres the concept:



More on this later!

Edit: I have been modding for the past 12 hours. My entire right hand is going numb, and my mp4 is recharging so no photos in the next hour or so. Im off to fight hunger... my own hunger that is :P

Edit #2: I got the mp4 charged enough to snap some pics:


kekeke... my giant evil plans.


Drive bay plexi cut out.

cut that cases fan-grill out. you can get way more airflow with it wide open. air pressure is all funky with em.....
check my casemod log....... HUGE difference. you are good, so you can probably make it look good

lol i did cut out the fan grill. The hex mesh fan grill is the new grill. The previous one allowed around 10% airflow :P

Also finished cutting the fan hole on the drive bay plexi:


Didnt get to paint because i slept till 5 and it was raining all day. I might change the interior color to black if this silver keeps picking up all the minute marks on the case :/
