Installing 3.5" Devices
There are two 3.5" drive cages inside the case. The upper one can hold 2
external 3.5" drives, and the lower one can hold 5 internal 3.5" drives.
1. Release the upper cage by pulling the quick-release lever and then the cage
towards the rear of the case.
2. Unscrew the thumbscrew at the bottom of the lower cage. To remove the
lower cage, press the release tab at the top of the lower cage and pull the
cage out of the opening towards yourself.
Note: Some other removable drive cages require you to pull the cage
towards the back of the case. This does NOT apply to the lower drive
cage.
3. Put both cages on a flat surface.
Note: If you want to install a 120mm fan at the front of the case, you
should do this before you re-install the lower drive cage. See the next
section ('Installing the Fan') for details.
4. Mount your floppy drives or other external devices in the upper cage.
5. Mount your hard drive or other internal 3.5" devices in the lower drive bays
with the special screws provided. Don't over-tighten. Over-tightening the
screws will harm the vibration and noise reducing ability of the rubber
grommets.
6. Slide and lock both drive cages back into the case. Secure the thumbscrew
at the bottom of the lower drive cage.
7. For each floppy drive you've installed, find a small 4-pin connector on the
power supply and connect it to the male 4-pin connector on the floppy drive.
8. For each hard drive or other internal 3.5" device you've installed, find a
peripheral connector on the power supply and connect it to the on the 3.5" device.
Cooling System
The TriCool fan
The case includes one 120mm TriCool fan installed in the rear. This fan has a
three-speed switch that lets you choose between quiet, performance, or maximum
cooling. See specifications below. The fan is installed so that the air is blowing
out of the case. Connect a large 4-pin connector from the power supply to the
male 4-pin connector on the fan.
Note: The minimum voltage to start the fan is 5V. We recommend our users to
set the fan speed to High if you choose to connect the fan to a fan control
device or to the Fan-Only connector found on some of Antec's power supplies.
A fan-controlled-device regulates the fan speed by varying the voltage to it. The
voltage may start as low as 4.5 V to 5V. Connecting a TriCool set on Medium
or Low to a fan-control device may result in the fan not being able to start. The
already lowered voltage from the fan control device will be further reduced by
the TriCool circuitry below 5V.
