bucko...that is bad ass...i may have to do something similar
Thanks guys. There will be shots of the insides. I just won't be showing any PSU mods at all.
I also wanted to do a non-Rat mod for a change.
As for handles, I did think about that, and I even have some I thought of using, but I decided against it as I won't be using it for travelling, I will have it live on my desk and be used as a back up drive for my Lappy and main PC.
True true :D. I am also very curious about inside. May we see pic from the cave of monster?:D.Quote:

its nice!
but its a big long:/ how many drives does it has room for?
Mate this looks fantastic, great mod so far.
Great work so far Bucko. If I saw this thing for sale on a shelf, I'd definitely buy one. You have certainly nailed that production look.

My camera batteries are flat, so I can't take the finished pics. Sorry guys, but I won't have a chance to get them up before the competition closes later today.
Post finished pics. I need to see it done to make the right decision
Here are the final pics.
The HDD I had lying around I used the 5.25" adapters on. It also has the USB cable I bought off eBay.
Here you can see it installed. The USB hub is just Blu-tac'd in place on the PSU. I'll mount it properly when I mod a PSU for the case later. It has the front USB hub plug into it as well and it's getting it's power from a wall wart. When I mod the next PSU, both hubs will be powered off the PSU. As I couldn't mod the PSU for this comp, I just threw an old AT 150W PSU in to fill the hole and have a switch that would power it on without any modding. To make the power switch work on the front, I used a small chrome button held in place with a lubricated rubber grommet. It slides in an out and hits the AT switch.
The leads out the back: PSU power, Wall Wart for the USB and the USB lead to plug into the computer.
And a couple of finished shots.
