Connecting the Audio Ports
There is an Intel standard 10-pin connector (with 7 individual wires with connec-
tors) coming out from the front panel speaker and microphone connection. If the
motherboard supports Intel's standard onboard audio connector, you can plug in
the 10-pin connector directly onto the board. For non-Intel standard audio connec-
tion, you need to plug the 7 individual connectors to the motherboard. Please see
the instruction:
Locate the internal audio connectors from the motherboard or sound card. Consult
the motherboard or sound card manual for the pin-out positions.
1. Microphone Signal Pin: Connect the MIC connector to this pin.
2. Microphone Power: Connect the MIC-BIAS connector to this pin.
3. Ground Pin: Connect the AUD GND connector to this pin.
4. Front Right Speaker Out Pin: Connect the FPOUT-R connector to this pin.
5. Front Left Speaker Out Pin: Connect the FPOUT-L connector to this pin.
6. Rear Right Speaker Out Pin: Connect the RET-R connector to this pin.
7. Rear Left Speaker Out Pin: Connect RET-L connector to this pin.
Hard Disk Installation
This case comes with dual hard disk mounting systems. We recommend using one
or the other, but not both at the same time.
The Tray Mount
There is a hard disk cage under the external 5.25" drive. You can mount four hard
drives using the trays inside it.
1. Open the front bezel as described in Setting Up section.
2. Loosen the two thumbscrews. Swing open the fan cage and gently lift the
cage upward to remove it. You will see four drive trays with soft silicon
grommets inside the cage.
3. Squeeze the metal clips on each side of the tray and slide the tray out.
4. Mount your hard drive into the drive tray through the bottom silicon grommets
with the special screws provided. Note: Don't over-tighten. Over-tightening
the screws will reduce the vibration and noise-dampening ability of the rubber
grommets.
5. Slide and lock the tray back into the case.
6. Find a 4-pin Molex connector on the power supply and connect it to the male
4-pin connector on the device.
7. Repeat the same procedure for the other devices as necessary.
8. Put the front fan cage back to the case. If you plan to mount the optional 92
mm case fans, do it now. See the Cooling section for fan installation.
