Micro ATX standoff / VGA loop cable installation
VGA loop cable
This cable loops the VGA signal
from the graphics card to the
12.1” TFT via the VGA bracket.
It fits to the connectors as shown.
The VGA is then connected internally
(see page 13 for PCB / cable reference).
Micro ATX standoff installation
When installing a micro ATX motherboard, screw
the 2 standoffs provided in the locations illustrated
above. These are for micro ATX only and MUST
NOT be installed if using a full ATX motherboard.

Optical disc drive (ODD) installation

the 4 screws as illustrated below.
Install ODD into the cage using
the correct screws (supplied).
Re-position the cage, with drive,
and replace all screws to secure.
Adjust (forward/back) position as
necessary to ensure functionality
of ODD eject button.

Optical disc drive installation

Optical disk drive (ODD) bezel installation.
The aluminum ODD bezel matches the finish of the case. The installation procedure requires that
the plastic drive bezel that comes fitted to your drive, be removed prior to installation. The drive
format icon should also be fitted to the bezel before installation. The metal sticker sheet supplied
has Blu-ray, HD-DVD or DVD icons, depending on the format being used.
Remove the existing plastic dirve bezel
from your ODD. This is usually done by
uncliping it and sliding it upwards. The
disc tray should be ejected when doing
this to gain access to the bezel.

Metal sticker fitting instructions.
Ensure the bezel is free from dirt of grease. Peel and fold back the yellow backing sheet, revealing
only the icon you intend to use. Carefully position the icon as central as possible, then apply even
pressure over the entire area. Peel off the plastic film (and unused icons) to reveal you handy work!

ODD bezel / metal sticker installation
With the tray closed, peel the back off the adhesive
foam strip on the back of the bezel. Using the
cardboard spacers, position the bezel as shown and
press firmly to ensure good adhesion. Eject the tray
to remove the spacers (a gentle tug may be required).

Hard drive installation.
T
as shown. You may need to loosen the
screws first with a screwdriver. Drives must
always be installed with the label facing
toward the front of case. Screw three rubber
mounting screws into the drive as shown
below (the screw arrangement is mirrored
for drives installed on the opposite side).
Use the chart on page 12 to determine
location, then lower the drive into place,
carefully guiding the bottom rubber mount
straight down the outer mount guide until
the upper mounts are sitting snugly at the
top of opposing guides. Once all drives
have been installed, secure the stop-rails.
o begin installation, remove the stop-rails
HD stop-rails.
When removing the stop-
rails, only the back screw
need be fully unscrewed-
loosening the front thumb
screw is all that ’s required
to remove the stop-rail
in the direction shown.
This screw
arrangement
is mirrored for
hard drives
installed on
the other side
of the case.

Optimum position for maximised airflow and cooling
Hard drive configuration.
In order to maximise airfow
and cooling of the hard drives,
use the chart on the left to
determine the optimum install
configuration for the number
of drives to be installed. When
more that 6 drives are required,
careful motherboard and PCI
card selection is recommended,
as in some cases M/B connector
pin position or and oversized
graphics card may inhibit some
drive configurations. If this
occurs, the drive positions can
be reversed (left to right) or the
drive spacing decreased as
needed. Always try to maximise
the airflow wherever possible.
