7. USB/1394/Audio cable pin assignments:6. Complete the installation:
7.1 With all components properly installed, gently return side panels and hard-drive cage to their original positions and replace all screws.
Congratulations! You have completed assembly of your X-QBoii.

4. Connect case leads to motherboard:
4.2 Connect leads to motherboard head- ers. Your motherboard documentation will provide schematics. The triangular markings on the leads indicate a positive wire.
4.4 Connect front panel leads to the motherboard headers*. Please refer to your motherboard documentation for placement schematics.
4.3 Locate the front panel leads. (You should find them twist-tied to the 3½” drive cage.)

3.2 From the outside rear of the case, push PCI slot cover(s) toward the inside of the chassis.
3.1 First, remove the PCI slot covers. Firmly press point A with thumb, while pulling point B with index finger to open the latch.
2.5 Align rails with hard-drive bay and insert.
3. Install PCI components:

2.1 To install an optical or floppy drive, first remove the metal shields that sit behind each drive bay cover. This must be done from the inside of the case. Next remove the drive bay covers by using a screwdriver, and knocking them out from behind.
2.4 Attach 1 mounting rail to each side of each hard-disk drive.
2.2 For 5 1/4” drives, align the device with the drive bay and insert. Do the same for 3 1/2” drives using the lower drive bays.
2.3 Slide the blue drive-rail forward and push the clamp downwards to engage locking mechanism. No screws are necessary, but can be used optionally on opti- cal and floppy drive bays.
2. Install 5¼” and 3½” drives:

1. Motherboard installation:
1.1 Remove thumbscrews from the rear of the X-QBoii.
NOTE: CPU and memory installation is not covered in this manual. Please refer to each components’ documentation for instructions.

1.2 Grab the notch on the left panel. Pull until the panel is released and remove.

1.4 Install your motherboard’s IO shield in the area shown. Make sure that shield will line up with rear mother- board ports.
1.6 Align and mount the motherboard over the standoffs and screw to the case.
1.5 If installing a full-sized micro ATX form factor motherboard (9.6”x9.6”), you will need to remove the screw shown and extract the hard-drive cage. You can also remove the hard-drive cage should you require a larger workspace.
NOTE: Touch an unpainted metal section of the case to discharge static before handling components (with power supply plugged in). An anti-static wrist-strap should also be worn to further minimize the possibility of damage.
1.3 Likewise for the window version, grab the notch on the left panel and pull until the panel releases. Remove panel.
3.3 Lengthier PCI cards such as the 8800GTX can be installed if your motherboard’s PCIe slot aligns with the first slot, as shown.
3.4 If the PCI slot you need is in any of the other positions, the 3½ “ drive cage must be uninstalled. Remove the screw shown above.
3.5 There is also a screw between the fan and bottom of the drive bays that must be removed.
3.6 Next, simply pull the drive cage forward and remove from case. You will then have ample space for installing lengthy PCI cards.
*If you are new to PC building, we recommend reading through this manual before assembling your system.
2.6 Insert drive into the desired bay until rails “click” into place.
5. Daisy-chaining case fans:
5.1 If using more than one case fan, you have the option of daisy-chaining them. This allows you to power up to 5 fans using a single peripheral connector. Plug the male end of the first fan to the fe- male end of the second fan, then plug the male end of the second fan into one of the power supply’s 4-pin connectors.

6. Complete the installation:
6.1 With all components properly installed, gently return side panels and hard-drive cage to their original positions and replace all screws.
Congratulations! You have completed assembly of your X-QBoii chassis.

4. Connect case leads to motherboard:
4.2 Connect leads to motherboard head- ers. Your motherboard documentation will provide schematics. The triangular markings on the leads indicate a positive wire.
4.4 Connect front panel leads to the motherboard headers. Please refer to your motherboard documentation for placement schematics.
4.3 Locate the front panel leads. (You should find them twist-tied to the 3½” drive cage.)

3.2 Insert PCI card into assigned slot for card type (i.e. x1, x8, x16 etc.)
3.1 First, remove the PCI slot covers. Gently push inward to remove.
2.5 Attach 1 mounting rail to each side of each hard-disk drive.
3. Install PCI components:

2.1 To install an optical or floppy drive, first remove the metal shields that sit behind each drive bay cover. This must be done from the inside of the case. Next remove the drive bay covers by using a screwdriver, and knocking them out from behind.
2.4 Install 3½”drive into 3½” drive bay.
2.2 For 5¼” drives, align the device with the drive bay and insert. Do the same for 3½” drives using the lower drive bays.
2.3 Slide the blue drive-rail forward and push the clamp downwards to engage locking mechanism. No screws are necessary, but can be used optionally on opti- cal and floppy drive bays.

1.2 Grab the notch on the left panel. Pull until the panel is released and remove.

1.4 Install your motherboard’s IO shield in the area shown. Make sure that shield will line up with rear mother- board ports.
1.6 Align and mount the motherboard over the standoffs and screw to the case.
1.5 If installing a full-sized micro ATX form factor motherboard (9.6”x9.6”), you will need to remove the screw shown and extract the hard-drive cage. You can also remove the hard-drive cage should you require a larger workspace.
NOTE: Touch an unpainted metal section of the case to discharge static before handling components (with power supply plugged in). An anti-static wrist-strap should also be worn to further minimize the possibility of damage.
1.3 Likewise for the window version, grab the notch on the left panel and pull until the panel releases. Remove panel.
3.3 Lengthier PCI cards such as the 8800GTX can be installed if your motherboard’s PCI slot aligns with the first slot, as shown.
3.4 If the PCI slot you need is in any of the other positions, the 3½” drive cage must be uninstalled. Remove the screw shown above.
3.5 There is also a screw between the fan and bottom of the drive bays that must be removed.
3.6 Next, simply pull the drive cage forward and remove from case. You will then have ample space for installing lengthy PCI cards.
*If you are new to PC building, we recommend reading through this manual before assembling your system.
