Stop using IE then Para! tongue.gif

Sorry, I don't much go for those tool-less designed cases preferring the CoolerMaster enclosures... so I couldn't say from experience wink.gif

However

Apparently you need some these plastic drive rails (3.5") were they not supplied with the case?


They were supposed to be in this nifty case (enclosed with product)


Here is a review with some mounting related info @ OC Cafe

And lastly (if all else fails tongue.gif) you can contact A-Top Technology (X Blade manufacturer) directly @ A-Top Tech biggrin.gif

Hope that helped smile.gif

You actually want to put in a floppy drive in a new case??? Why are still using them? why don't you try going without it for a few weeks and see if you really still need it...

If you really want a floppy in it, put a 5 1/2 floppy in. (Thats what I will be doing) RETRO!

WHo still uses floppys..... please, you NEED floppys, they come in handy when formatting, or to transfer small files, and how would you Flash your BIOS without a floppy?

I use a floppy mainly for putting reports on them and some computers parts come with maunals on a floppy.

to install RAID Drivers, you need a floppy. In fact, my mobo came with a floppy disk with the drives on it. Now, if only my video card would get here so i can finnish the build. dry.gif
