Installing Other Hardware to the Universal Brackets
The universal brackets are extremely versatile and can be used to mount
virtually any hardware to the sides of the case. Water cooling is a good
example of this, and the procedure for fitting is exactly the same as drives
and fans. Simply attached the hardware to the universal brackets, then
secure the brackets in place with the universal clips. The more fixing points
that are used, the more secure the hardware will be, so take this into
consideration, especially with heavy hardware or during transportation.
Bracing for Transportation
When fitting 3.5" drives or other heavy hardware, its recommended to
use at least 2 fixing point. If using the vertical orientation for 3.5" drives, the
universal brackets can also be used on the other side of the drives to lock
the individual drives together. This improves the rigidify and ensures there
is less chance of damage due to mis-handling or excess force during
transportation.
This additional bracing is only recommended in situations when the case is
being transported, and is should not be required for typical stationary
usage.
