I honestly think that releasable type zip ties would be a really good investment in DS's systems. Really, it's annoying when you want to reorganize your cables, and find out that you have to go and cutoff zip-ties, then go out and buy them again. I mean, who has zip ties lying around just for that purpose? Well, maybe the higher end guys, but I mean the common consumer. No one's gonna try to do that, some are probably even scared to, lol. Just a suggestion, anyone second it?

What would be scarier is thinking someone can do a "better" cable management and realize they were wrong and now, there are no spare zipties lying around. I agree nonetheless. Change a component and having to use a one time ziptie is a hassle, but I doubt any DS'r would upgrade his/her new DS system upon receiving it. Maybe later down the line. But doesn't DS ship some extra zipties within the box? I forget.

I would! lol. Well, for later down the line like GPU upgrades, extra bay drives, sound cards, etc. that require extra power or SATA cables, etc. Then you need to slice it open to just extract one cable, and completely ruin the rest of the wiring. I dunno, waste of a perfectly good zip tie and some $5 for a bag of 10 zip ties with 9 extra you don't need.
