P180 USER'S MANUAL The P180 comes without a power supply. Make sure you choose a power supply that is compati- ble with and has long enough power harnesses to reach your motherboard and peripheral devices.
3.5" DEVICE INSTALLATION With the front bezel facing you, swing the front door open. It can swing 270 degrees so the door will be parallel with the side of the case. You can see there are four 5.25" and one 3.5" external drive bays.
5.25" DEVICE INSTALLATION There are four 5.25" drive bays in the P180. There are six drive rails docked on top of the VGA duct and two drive rails stored inside the box also containing the top fan spoiler. We recommend using the two drive rails inside the box first.
If you intend to connect the front FireWire port to an IEEE 1394 add-on card that comes with an external-type IEEE 1394 connector, please call Antec customer service at (800) 22ANTEC (North America) or +31 (0) 10 462-2060 (Europe) to purchase an adapter.
5V. We recommend our users to set the fan speed to High if you choose to connect the fan to a fan control device or to the Fan-Only connector found on some Antec power supplies. A fan-controlled-device regulates the fan speed by varying the voltage to the fan.

We recommend installing the optional fan only if necessary since it will create more fan noise. For most systems this fan should be unnecessary, but if you choose to install it we recommend using an Antec 120mm TriCool fan set to Low.
