3.5" DEVICE INSTALLATION
With the front bezel facing you, swing the front door out. You can see there are four 5.25" and
two 3.5" external drive bays. Inside the case there are four 3.5" drive cages.
1. Pull the quick release lever towards the rear of the case and release the top cage first.
Looking from the rear of the case you can see some metal grills over the exposed (external)
drive bays. Carefully put a screwdriver through the metal grill and gently push the plastic
drive bay cover until it comes off. Carefully use your hands to twist the metal plate back
and forth until it breaks off.
Note: Don't take off the covers and plates for the drive bays that you are not using now.
Be careful of the newly exposed metal where the grills were attached, as these areas are
likely to be sharp.
2. Install your floppy drive into the top drive bay.
3. Mount your other 3.5" device into the drive cage.
4. Slide and lock the drive cage back into the case.
5. Release the second cage.
Note: Inside the cage you will find a fan bracket. If you want to have a cooling fan in the
drive cage, you should install the fan before installing the drives. For fan installation please
see the Fan installation section of this manual.
6. Mount your other 3.5" devices into the drive cage.
7. Slide and lock the drive cage back into the case.
8. Find a small 4-pin connector on the power supply and connect it to the male 4-pin
connector on the floppy drive.
9. Connect the appropriate power connector from the power supply to each device.
5.25" DEVICE INSTALLATION
1. Take off the plastic drive bay covers and metal plates as described above.
2. Take two of the drive rails and mount them to the sides of the 5.25" device. Make sure
the metal portion is angled away from the device and facing forward.
3. Slide the device into the drive bay until you hear a click.
4. Mount the other devices accordingly. Connect a large 4-pin connector from the power
supply to the male 4-pin connector on each of the devices.
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.
