4. Installing a mainboard 1. Open the case by loosening the thumb screws on the case’s back side and removing the left side panel. Lay down the case sidewise on an even surface. 2. The mainboard’s mounting panel inside the case provides various drillings to screw in the stand-offs (fig. 1). Place the mainboard to the mounting panel. A stand-off must be screwed into every drilling of the mounting panel visible through the mainboard’s screw openings. 3.
5. Place the mainboard back onto the stand-offs and screw the mainboard to them (fig. 4). 5. Installing a HDD 5.1 Fast Swap bays 1. Set up the case in front of you. 2. Open the bezel of the Fast Swap bays. Unlock one mounting frame’s detent lever, pull the mounting frame towards you and take it out of the case (fig. 5). (Screws for mainboard mounting) fig. 5 fig. 4 6.
4. Screw the HDD to the mounting frame from below (fig. 7). 6. Connect the circuit board’s SATA data connector to a matching SATA data connector on the mainboard (fig. 8). (Screws with coarse thread for HDD mounting) fig. 8 5.2 3.5" HDD cage 1. Attach the mounting rails to the 3.5“ HDD from both sides (fig. 9). fig. 7 5. Slide the mounting frame back into the Fast Swap bay until its detent lever locks and close the bezel. fig.
2. Slide the HDD with attached mounting rails into an available drive bay inside the 3.5" HDD cage (fig. 10). 3. Screw the HDD to the drive bay from both sides (fig. 12). (Screws with coarse thread for HDD mounting) fig. 10 3. Connect the built-in HDD to the mainboard. 5.3 3.5" drive bay 1. Remove the case’s left and right side panel. fig. 12 2. Insert a 3.5" HDD into the drive bay below the Fast Swap drive bays inside the case (fig. 11). 4. Connect the installed HDD to the mainboard. fig.
5.4 2.5" HDD cage 1. Insert a 2.5“ HDD/SSD into a drive bay of the 2.5“ HDD cage until it locks inside the pre-installed plastic rail (fig. 13). Note: The PSU may be installed in two different directions: either the fan points upwards (towards the mainboard) or the fan points downwards (towards the floor). 2. Screw the PSU to the case from the outside (fig. 15). (Screws for PSU mounting) fig. 13 fig. 15 2. Connect the inserted HDD to the mainboard. 3.
7. Installing an optical device 1. 2. Insert the optical drive into the case’s drive bay and attach it from both sides using the pre-installed quick fasteners (fig. 18). Reach into the case and push out the 5.25" front bezel from the mounting bay where you want to install the drive (fig. 17). fig. 18 3. Connect the optical drive to the power supply and the mainboard. fig. 17 Note: If you intend to transport the case we recommend securing (additionally) the installed drives.
