Building a Computer

[iss]

There are some external drive bay USB 2.0 devices. I have a 5.25 one with two usb ports and it connects directly to the usb 2.0 on the motherboard. but those are hard to find these days. I also have one system with a 3.25 that has 4 Usb 2.0 ports and they are fairly easy to find. but it requires the usb connection to go thru the inside of the case and out the back to connect to one USB 2.0 port on the back of the computer.

I found it. It was located near the very bottom of the front of the case, and it has a cover that looks exactly the same as the rest of the front which is why i didn't see it. It has 2 usb 2.0 ports.

So far I have received my case, RAM, and PSU. My hard drive should arive some time today.

I just saw something my PSU says its main connector is 20+4-pin and my mobo says its main connector is 24 pin, do I have a problem?

No problem at all, all that 20+4 means that it can work with motherboards that are 20 pin and and 24pin.

20+4 connectors use a standard 20 pin ATX power connector that has a detachable 4 pin connector (that should be attached by default).

P.S. don't confuse this detatchable conector with the 12v ATX CPU connector
