Looks wicked, can't wait to see it with black drive covers! Have you thought about ghosting the drives?

Thought about it but the drives are attached with two screw-less nylon rails that push into the drive and then slide into the drive cage. So I can't adjust the amount of space in front of the drives... I'll probably just paint them the same colour after I sprayed them with some plastic primer. Will do so as soon as I have time! ;) I'm also thinking of spraying the inside of the case black too and maybe mounting a mirror in the bottom to reflect the cathode? Thanks for the comments btw!

The toggle-switches on the front look like great fun to twiddle when your board!

That looks awsome! I love the way you've kept all the lighting to one base colour!

Great job! 6 from me
