that is the secret(im not sure its my original idea but i put i to use last night lol couldn't sleep),slot youre hdd backwards in the case its a lot more easy to reroute the cables behinde rear hdd mount.
you see?:

(the yelow parts are painted in UVpaint)
and you dont get wires under the motherboard, dont like that, it screw's up the air circulation behinde the board, because you make a tree from youre wires and use what you need
what do you think is it better than puting al of youre wires under the optical drive or behinde the MB

I can't wait to get a case that will actually let me do that.

Yeah, very good idea. My old case had just little holes for the screws so I didn't have any way to mount them when the HDD was backwards. Luckily my new case does so I will be doing this.
