was just thinking where i could put the hdd :rod:

so we have the following things.
=> hdd+window+leds=>cool
=>anything thats not modded yet
frontpanel

you can amost guess it maybe but i am still horny from the tough.

thats how it looks naked, without the premodded El lighted "thermaltake logo"


the backside form the frontpanel(little bit better finisched but


this whas my idea for the "stock" front


imaginate yourself=> front with led lighted spinning hdd.:grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:


cheers

and here we are again.

what did i do.
w'll see that in about now.

i cutted some "thin"(4mm) plate trough and made it in hdd shape. you like it


another angle


the corners must be filed more round in a few days but its almost done.



to look it more agressive and sportive, i made a wider intake. its going to finisched better but its modding stop today.



going to make something like a blowpase(gang)


thats all for today

keep it cool :grin:


btw:
have to cut 2 mor layers when my front is completely finisched.

Just looked near me and i saw that plexi hdd laying around,
thought mhh lets try to fit it.
Offcourse i wouldn't fit perfect but thats not whats all about.
About the lighting of the hdd with blue leds, i had this blue ledbeamer shining on my atilogo.
So i removed it and placed it above the hdd.

This is the result





i' am prolly going to add more leds but this is already :grin:
