At Antec, we continually refine and improve our products to ensure the highest quality. It’s possible that your new case will differ slightly from the descriptions in this manual. This isn’t a problem; it’s simply an improvement. As of the date of publication, all features, descriptions, and illustrations in this manual are correct. Disclaimer This manual is intended only as a guide for Antec’s Computer Enclosures.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Make sure you have the correct I/O panel for your motherboard. If the panel provided with the case isn’t suitable, please contact your motherboard manufacturer for the correct I/O panel. Line up your motherboard with the standoff holes, and remember which holes are lined up. Not all motherboards will match with all the provided holes; this is normal, and won’t affect functionality. (In other words, there will likely be extra holes.) Remove your motherboard by lifting it up.
Connecting the IEEE 1394 (FireWire®, i.Link®) Port You will find a single 10-pin connector on a cable attached to the front IEEE 1394 connection. This is an Intel standard connector, which is keyed so that it can’t be accidentally reversed as long as it is connected to a proper Intel standard motherboard header. Connect the 10-pin connector to your motherboard header so that the blocked pin fits over the missing header pin.
EarthWatts™ 500 Power Supply (Sonata Designer 500 Model Only) Sonata Designer 500 comes with a 500 Watt EarthWatts PSU which is built to be compatible with the ATX12V version 2.2 specification. This PSU is very efficient, which reduces power consumption by up to 25% and saves you money on your electricity bill. EarthWatts power supplies have achieved 80 PLUS® Certification, the latest independent standard in PSU efficiency.
Special Quiet Computing Fan Operation NeoPower power supplies feature an innovative design that decreases noise during normal use, but which allows for superior cooling capabilities as loads increase. Owing to its ultra high efficiency and low heat generation, NeoPower can utilize an 80mm exhaust fan that rotates slowly and quietly to blow hot air out of the PSU, speeding up as heat increases. Advanced Cable Management System NeoPower power supplies feature Antec’s Advanced Cable Management System.
. Two sets of wires with two SATA drive connectors at one end and a 6-pin PSU connector at the other end. Note: The SATA connectors include a +3.3V output so you can power the latest SATA devices.
7. Connect the power cord to the PSU. Power Switch: Both the EarthWatts 500 and NeoPower 550 come with a main power switch. Make sure you turn the switch to the ON (I) position before you boot up your computer for the first time. In normal operation there is no need to turn the switch to the OFF (O) position since the PSU is equipped with a soft on/off feature, which turns your computer on and off through the soft switch on your computer case.
7. 8. Repeat the same procedure for the other drives as necessary. Put the front fan cage back to the case. If you plan to mount the optional 92mm case fans, you should do it now. See Cooling system section for fan installation. 5.25” Device Installation There are four external 5.25” drive bays (one with 5.25” to 3.5” adapter). The top two drive bays come with a universal drive door that allows you to hide your optical drive behind the door. 1. Carefully remove the metal plate covering the drive bay. 2.
