I can still open the drive the normal way by pressing the right hand corner of the stealth cover. I also added HOT key to my keyboard so i can close and open the drive at a press of the button. Removed the software already ;) Rest of my PC

how do you eject it? should should dremal a small square near the button, then widen the hole, and finally glue the the spare square on the button.

What's the point of having a 300W Dedicated VGA PSU if your 6500 doesn't need an External Power Connector? Just wondering...

Nice job on the stealth drive BTW.

Why have you routed that SATA cable right over the pretty light-up ASUS badge, which is a defining feature of your motherboard?

The standard P5B overclocks bloody brilliantly too - it just doesn't have the sweet 8-phase power. C'mon, really, why would you spend the extra for just one feature when the Deluxe gains much?
