Im finally putting this computer together, but installing the drives in this case is kinda odd.

Look at the 4th pic in from the left:

I know you have to use those white plastic thingys at the bottom, but I dont get how you use them:confused:

I kinda need to install CD drives in my comp ;)

i may be wrong on this but they fit either side of your drive as gap fillers, they go on to the side of your driver should it be loose in the holder:confused:

They are called mounting rails
You use two screws on each side and connect them to your 5 1/4 drives ( Cd-rw, cd, dvd) drives
the small metal clips on the rails allow you to install these drives from the front of the case.
They slide in till the clips lock

Just slide the drives into the slots after you mount the rails
if you need to remove them at a later date . Just press the clips inward and slide the drives out

The only hard part is getting the drives to align with the front edge of the case correctly
You may need to measure the position and depth then use the correct screw holes and slots
to get the fit correct
