IS there a good (free) guide somewhere about MOD cabling and senser setups for MOD PCs? The reason why I ask is because I got a 5inch senser bay comp. that requires me to add senser cables to my HDD, case, and FANS.
How in the hell do you put that senser on my HDD?
I dought you just tape the sucker on the top and hope for the best.....

Also, this product includes sound control. It has a USB cable to connect where? How can you connect a USB cable *INSIDE* your case?

For temp sensors on fan controllers you just get them as close as you can to the devices. Taping a sensor to the top or bottom of the hd would actually be a good way to go :)
I would also use the same method and tape a sensor next to the chipset, cpu, etc. Just get them as close as you can. Those temps main purpose is to give a rough idea of your temps and adjust the fans accordingly. They don't neccissarily need to be 100% accurate.

As for usb that is a slight rig job to get it internal. If your motherboard came with a little pci slot w/ extra usb ports you will be good to go. Just unscrew the ports from the pci slot cover, plug it into the internal pins, and plug the device into it. Not the prettiest I guess but it works good enough. If you dont have a little pci usb port thing just feed the cable through a pci slot.

the asus a8n-sli comes with 2 usb headers each with 2 channels. look in your asus manual it labels each pin in case the wires are seperated.

are you going to bark all day little doggie?
or are you going to bite?
