cool. thanks.
i should probably get some fans.
whered you get yours...komplett?

Yip both of them from komplett, very nice cases.
If your getting fans for the h/d bays make sure you get ones with long cables for a bit of leway as the normal ones caused problems for me.

is that six hard drives!

How did you get your floppy to stay put, theres no securer things like there is for the cd drives.?

Basically theres a sliding tray to put 2 floppy drives in handy enough.
You need to take off the front of the case to unscrew it to take it out.

Konix · 10-07-2003 3:00pm

you screw them in, do you?

Konix if you do a search on google about the case their is a good website that goes though the whole case.... I might have a link at home for the site if i find it i'll post it.

I have one of these.. full of fans.. excellent case.. though i made no mods to it.. no cool lights and stuff like that.

Konix · 19-07-2003 8:11pm

thanks for all teh help guys. i managed to put everything together except teh floppy....really couldnt be arsed taking off the cover and stuff.
one thing. they didnt give me a ribbon cable for the cd drives...i have a cdr and a dvd so i got one in work. the problem is it only registers one drive at a time...no matter how i arrange the order etc? any ideas?

xen · 19-07-2003 9:04pm

Have you set slave and master drives???

Konix · 19-07-2003 9:18pm

i dont thinkso. how do i do that?

JackKelly · 19-07-2003 9:25pm

did you cut that window yourself? if you did, how difficult was it?

Konix · 19-07-2003 9:30pm

can you explain that??

Karl Hungus · 20-07-2003 5:49am

Konix, there should be instructions on most drives as how to set slave/master. It's just a simple matter of putting the jumper in the right position. Exactly the same with hard drives, if you've ever used multiple drives.

Very nice case mod, PPC. But I soon shall have mine modded, and my PC shall put all yours to utter foolish shame! Bwahahah! And yes, Cheiftec cases do indeed rock the kasbah!

Konix · 20-07-2003 4:46pm

yeah, ive got my hard drives up nd runnning no problem. slave and master but am verry confused about the cd drives. itll only register one at a time and its always the cdr one therefore i cant use me cdr. just thought id explain again.

Cheers

I'll be getting mine done up soon aswell if i get a chance, havent bothered with it really

Saruman · 21-07-2003 9:37am

Some drives have 2 master settings.. one for Master (single drive) and the other for Master (with slave) so make sure yours does not have this setting.. if so change it.

Are you sure you have them on the right IDE cables?
