Fractal Design XL HDD Question

[BillHicksRIP]

Built this case last night and it was practically a pleasure to do so. One dumb question though, how do you screw the HDD's in? There's 2 sets of HDD enclosures with removable trays that you place the drives in. The case comes with 40 HDD screws, but I can't work out where to screw them into! There aren't holes big enough in the trays to put the supplied screws through. Unless I'm being thick, which is a distinct possibility. Anyone got any ideas?

Aha. Underneath the drives and trays there are screws to fix from the bottom up. Can't see a dedicated thread for this case but if anyone's thinking of getting one, I'd recommend picking up some 3-pin, 4-pin and ATX 12v extension cables at the same time. Astounding case though.

So true. To make the most of the cable routing holes you really do need extension cables. Mainly 24pin and 4/8 pin power connectors. Theres a hole right above the board where you can push the 4/8pin connector through and to the right of the board right next to the 24 pin connector. Amazing case.
