Hi 'SFF-Experts'

Just finishing off my order and was wondering if anyone could just give a quick oversight to make sure I'm good to go.

Currently have 2Gb Corsair DDR XMS3200 and a XFX GeForce 6800GT and AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego CPU.

Will be placing these in a SN25P case, with bog-standard Optical Drive and Floppy Drive (see notes below for floppy!).

I'll also be placing in a Terratec DVB-T Twin Tuner card.

Now, here comes the nitty gritty.

I currently have 3 drives. 2 Samsung Spinpoint 160GB's and 1 Maxtor 120Gb.

I'd like to keep the Spinpoints and place these in the Shuttle. Can't see a problem with that, but I'd also like to replace the 120Gb Maxtor and replace it with a 250Gb SATA Maxtor.

Will I be able to place ALL THREE hard drives in the case without issue, or will I have to sacrifice the floppy drive (in which case I'll buy an external one).

If I 'DO' have to remove the floppy, does the shuttle case come with a bezel to fill in the hole that will be left by the removal?

Likewise, will the GT6800 AND the Terratec tuner card be ok as I'm hearing reports by a few sites that the wider graphics cards don't allow anything in the 1xPCI-E slot. Is the 6800GT and Terratec gonna be ok?

Cheers folks, sorry for the constant questions but you know what we're all like! :p
