The V1000+ will not accept a modular PSU without removing 3 x drive bays.
(They unbolt which is good)
But it will reduce the HDD slots from 6 to 3.

You said that before.Yewen said:But if you are using 6 hard drives you do not really have a need for a modular PSU.
There are still extra unused cables I want to get rid of though...
You can remove them from your PSU usually.
Make sure you know what you are doing first though; I for one would not feel comfortable explaining how to do it to someone due to how nasty a PSU can be.
Some modular PSU's fit into the v1000+ when you just remove the heat divider / partition wall.
Another option is to secure the PSU sticking out the back of the case a little using old school motherboard standoffs.
Lots of solutions with a Lian Li.

Um... Kinda hijacked a thread here. :s
(Sorry!)
Done it to 2 x PSU's before - But usually after their warranties have expired.
Snipped off just beside the PCB nice and neatly.
The Chieftec PSU never worked again tho. ??
No pops, no "owww"'s, swapped the fan over at the same time.
Just never span up again.
