Antec ARIA Micro-ATX Case Review - Where are All the Connectors?
(Page 4 of 8 )
Remember that picture that I showed you earlier with the Front Bezel Media Connectors? Here is what it looks like on the inside, cables and all.

There are a lot of wires in a very small space for this set up, but if you take your time and route them the way you should, there shouldn't be too big of a problem managing this mess. One thing that did bother me is shown in the bottom picture. Look at that connection -- very flimsy to say the lease and not very protected. In fact the whole media reader is un-protected on the inside. I think this is a great added edition to this case, but Antec should have put at least a plastic cover over the top of this card reader. If you notice in the first picture you will see the top three wires are the Power Button, the Hard Drive LED, and the Reset Switch. They are very spread out.

I love building computers, but I also like the insides to be nice and neat. I always do cable management as I put together a new computer. The thing that bothers me most is that this doesn't allow for very good cable management, especially with all the wires associated with the Card Reader and the USB, FireWire and Input/Output connectors.
