Hardware Installation Guide 2.1 Setting Up 1. Place the case upright on a flat, stable surface so that the rear panel (power supply and expansion slots) is facing you. 2. Remove the panel thumbscrews from the side panel and open it by sliding it towards you.Note: Place the panel thumbscrews carefully aside as they are NOT interchangeable with the HDD cage thumbscrews. 3. Inside the case is the power supply mount at the lower rear of the case and the 5.
2.4 Flexi-Drive Bay System The Nine Hundred Two comes with nine 5.25” external drive bays at the front of the case. There are two HDD cages pre-installed inside the bottom six 5.25” bays. Each HDD cage occupies three consecutive 5.25” drive bays and can house three hard disk drives. For maximum flexibility you can mount the HDD cage anywhere within the external drive bays (i.e., you are not limited to the bottom six bays). Possible drive bay combinations include but are not limited to: • External 3 x 5.
6. Connect the appropriate connector(s) from the power supply to the device(s). Leave some slack in the connections so that you can easily access the fan filters for cleaning. 7. There is a 120mm fan pre-installed onto each cage. Connect the 4-pin connector to the power supply. Note: There is a middle fan bracket pre-installed on one of the HDD cages. Remove it from the cage if you decide to mount your hard drives into this cage. 2.6 External 3.5” Device Installation 1.
2.8 Cable Management Compartment There is a cable management compartment between the motherboard and right side panel. You can tuck or route excess cables in this compartment. 1. Remove both side panels. 2. Choose the cables you would like to pass through the holes behind the motherboard tray and pull them out of the power supply chamber towards the right side of the case. 3. Use the cable ties provided to hold them in place. 4.
3.2 eSATA You will find a SATA connector on a cable attached to the front ports. This internal SATA connector is designed to connect to a standard SATA connector on your motherboard. This will allow high-speed external hard disk enclosures such as the Antec MX-1 to run at the same speeds as internally installed hard disks. 3.3 AC’97/HD Audio Ports There is an Intel® standard 10-pin AC’97 connector and an Intel® 10-pin HDA (High Definition Audio) connector linked to the front panel of the case.
3.5 Rewiring Motherboard Header Connection There may come a time when you need to reconfigure the pin-out of a motherboard header connector. Examples could be for your USB header, audio input header, or some other front panel connector such as the Power Button connector. Before performing any work, please refer to your motherboard manual or your motherboard manufacturer’s website to be sure of the pin-out needed for your connector.
4.2 Front/Rear TriCool™ Blue LED Fans The Nine Hundred Two comes with two pre-installed 120mm x 25mm blue LED fans, one in front of each HDD cage to cool the hard drives. These fans are installed so the air will be blown into the case. Each fan comes with a speed control knob at the front of the faceplate. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the speed. The lowest speed is 1200 RPM while the highest speed is 2000 RPM. See the chart below to view the appropriate specifications.
4.3 Optional Fans There are two optional 120mm fan mounts—the side fan (on the left side panel) and the middle fan (at the rear end of the HDD cage). We recommend using Antec 120mm TriCool™ fans and setting the speed to Low. These two fans should be installed so that the air is blowing into the case. Side Fan — the side fan opening enhances graphics card cooling. Just snap a fan into the bracket on the side panel so that it blows air into the case.
