rack, please use the clear plastic film that came with the toolbox to cover  
the ventilation (see picture 3). This can prevent hot air in the cabinet from  
entering the system and causing heat related system problems.  
CONNECTING THE USB PORTS  
You will find two 4-pin connectors on cables attached to the front USB ports.  
Picture 3  
Connect the 4-pin connectors to your motherboard headers so that the USB Power pins match  
the VCC pins on the connectors.  
Note: Please check your motherboard manual for your USB header pin layout and make sure it  
matches the attached table. If it does not match, please call Antec customer support at (800)  
22ANTEC (North America) or at +31 (0) 10 462-2060 (Europe) to buy a USB adapter. This  
adapter will allow you to connect the front USB to your motherboard on a pin-by-pin basis.

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.  
Note: Please check your motherboard manual for your IEEE 1394 header pin layout and make  
sure it matches the attached table. If you intend to connect the front FireWire port to an IEEE  
1394 add-on card that comes with an external-type IEEE1394 connector, please call Antec  
customer support at (800) 22ANTEC (North America) or +31 (0) 10 462-2060 (Europe) to buy  
an adapter. This adapter will allow you to connect the front IEEE 1394 port to the external-type  
connector.

3.5" DEVICE INSTALLATION  
With the front bezel facing you, turn the latch and swing the front door. You can see there are  
two 5.25" and two 3.5" external drive bays. Inside the case there are four 3.5" drive cages.  
For external 3.5" devices:  
1. Locate the external 3.5" drive bays. They are to the right of the 5.25" drive bays.  
2. Unscrew the 4 small Phillips head screws located on the front panel around the drive cage.  
3. Pull the cage and unscrew the drive bay covers.  
4. Install your external 3.5" devices.  
5. Reattach the cage and devices to the chassis.  
Note: Don't take off the covers and plates for the drive bays that you are not using now.  
For Internal devices:  
6. Loosen the thumbscrews on each side of the drive bay, for the drive bay that you wish to  
install a device.  
7. Pull the drive tray forward all the way out of the chassis.  
8. Mount your hard drive or other internal 3.5" device into the drive tray  
through the bottom rubber grommets with the special screws provided  
(see picture 4). Note: Don't over-tighten. Over-tightening the screws will  
harm the vibration–and noise–reducing ability of the rubber grommets.  
9. Slide the tray/device assembly back into the chassis and retighten the  
picture 4  
thumbscrews.  
10. Repeat the above as necessary.  
11. Connect either a large 4-pin connector or SATA power connector from the power supply to  
the male 4-pin connector or SATA connector on each of the other devices.  
5.25" DEVICE INSTALLATION  
1. Unscrew the two screws on the left side of chassis. Unscrew the four screws around the  
front of the 5.25" drive bays (along the top and right sides of the cage).  
2. Pull the cage towards the back of the case and then lift the cage out.  
3. Unscrew the screws that attach the drive bay cover to the cage.  
4. Install your 5.25" device.  
5. 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 and one 92mm TriCool installed in the rear. These  
fans have a three-speed switch that lets you choose between quiet, performance, or maximum  
cooling. (See specifications below.) The fans are 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.
