cbrazeau ~ Indeed, more space is helpful for some (I am one of them). The trade-off is that the case is quite large, but I am not bothered by that aspect as I alot a significant amount of my personal space to this hobby. I am pleased that my plan is making more sense, sometimes I can't formulate the words to express what my intentions are without sounding like a babbling fool... so I remain silent and use pics.

ZacAtak! Heya, Bro. Thanks for the nod.

Wasted ~ I was kinda nervous when I cut the slots as it was one of those "one shot and one shot only" moments. It worked out alright, but some tedious clean-up is in order.

The fan is not one of the LED varieties. If I recall, I could not find one in Red, only Blue and LED-less. I went with the latter as the case lighting is going to be a combination of Red CCFL and UV-lighting.


...gonna start doing some sanding this morning, and once it gets to be a respectable hour, I will start with the power tools so that I can polish stuff... YaY!

Sweet, cant wait to see more. I love bigger cases (as long as they look good, huge ugly cases are a sign of disrespect to the computer world). Though I also like compact cases were everything just fits in perfectly.

Default Update: 07.19.08

The HDD cage was on the agenda today.

Here is the test-fit hardware:





Some shots of the frame. Once I am okay with the way the unit assembles, I will change out the hardware to something a little more suitable ... in Black.







A few images of the mounted VR's:









And the intended placement within the case:

Wow! the VRs look almost natural inside the case (and mind you, they semi-resemble your avatar).. If you were to rotate it 90 degrees so that it faces outwards of the side panel, how would that look? Maybe white LED spraying light between the two drives? This is entirely from my amateur viewpoint, but them drives are just soo pretty

Just like CD & ice_owl and now a few others joining in on the OCN modding ranks, it doesn't matter what you do cuz it's gonna look friggin awesome regardless!!!!

Mornin' Gents.


....... Indy.. I never noticed that. Yah... it does resemble the "Enso".

Orientation: I played around with different angles, but I think I need to stick with the original plan as there is tubing that will need to be routed on either side of the HDD cage.

lol! Even with the gargantuan sizing, there are still "cramped" portions.

Thanks for the suggestions... UV paint eh?... hmmm...tempting.
