Hi all,

My system is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow! Finally the long wait will be over.

I just had a quick question: Are the drive bays in the Apollo the kind where they are already hooked into the motherboard, and you just slide a drive in? Or do you need to run sata / power cables to each drive bay? I've got some old drives I wanted to add to my system, and wasn't sure if I'd need to run the cabling or not.

Thanks

--John

P.S. I'll post a review and pics this weekend. I have a most unusual setup that I think you'll find surprising. Stay tuned!

The drive bays are not wired like hotswap bays.   You'll need to run over power cable from psu and a SATA data cable from drive to mobo.

The power cable connection is probably tye-wrapped in the harness nearby.
