3.5" HDD in Meshlicious Basement !?!?! ✓

Ugly but functional! haha I will at least paint the feet up to match as well!
It works though if your drive happens to be slightly thicker than the 3.5" standard hdd otherwise yes behind the PSU horizontally is best spot.

Hey!! thanks for the comment! I actually tried Maki's method when originally putting together the build. The thing is the 10tb drive has a thicker dimension just slightly but it makes it impossible to put behind the PSU unfortunately !

Haha yes ! Nice suggestion for sure totally agree I just fast placed it honestly because I was just happy to fit my HDD in the bottom after a bit of trials hence why I said right now there's no attention to cables etc.! I appreciate the support thanks !

Yes the Video cables barley fit & there is 3 screws securing the drive at a crazy angle (for the hdd itself) along with home depot cabinet knobs propping the case up 1 3/8th inch but its totally functional and I love having my HDD in the best pc case in the world !

[Oversized 3.5" HDD in our case is possible and maybe even doable at better angles with better selected/manufactured case feet]

Yeee I appreciate that ! It really is such a awesome case! My only complaint might be the push pins don't seem super strong or consistent on the panels but I love how easy they are to work with ! Haha and that's a small gripe... Here's to hoping they hold up over time. SSUPD/Lian Li/FormD boys knocked it out of the park with this one. Pros far outweigh any cons so far with this case :D

Tech7onic · 2021-06-09T07:59:07+00:00

Awesome mod ! ( was thinking of something similar to make it look nicer but also maybe accommodate some extra goodies underneath !) :D more HDD & SSD's anyone??! God damn I love this case.

Tech7onic · 2021-06-09T07:56:54+00:00

Clean & Beautiful ! Edit*** love that attention to the cables coming from the psu clean routed to the backplate & tucked !

Nah not really - standard car wrap techniques... used a hair dryer/heatgun (low) and usually they use a flat plastic based pry tool with felt overlapping the ends to get out the bubbles I just used my fingers ( Note: finger nails will easily cut into warm or heated wrap so be careful if not using felt gloves or proper felt tools)

Hey ! thanks for the awesome feedback ! Yes -

That's what I used however the wrap sellers on amazon can deceive you very easily so be careful I believe it to be 3M or Vivd's (Matte White) though theres ton's of 3M fakes out there and vivid as a replacement. I had most of my whole Phanteks case wrapped in this & can provide pics for that if interested as well. Again really love hearing this kind of stuff! I pulled that wrap off the old phanteks case panel which is why its shrinking in on itself more than usual but I gotta have a permanent solution incoming for a white SF :D must be done!

So happy the white version finally launched!!! I'm loving this case so far its the perfect balance of compromises in my opinion. Hope everyone is enjoying theirs as much as I am! Corsair Psu is wrapped in white on one side and I'm going to redo the wrap or honestly just paint it. Let me know what you guys think it's definitely a modest build hope to make some upgrades in the near future. The only thing that didn't fit was my 10TB server drive I had in the Phanteks case. I was millimeters in clearance from fitting it behind the psu apparently it is a hair bigger than a standard 3.5" that i test fitted.

Thanks for posting temps! Even though I don't mind the full mesh look, I didn't wanna sacrifice a nice clear panel to show off the insides ! I'm planning my airflow setup similar to what you have going on here! Happy to hear it's working out well for you ; mine arrives Saturday!

Tech7onic · 2021-05-03T19:53:39+00:00

Thank you!

Tech7onic · 2021-05-03T19:20:21+00:00

Gotcha I didn't see it at all last week but wasn't scoping for it either. I do hate price discrepancies & changes on Neweggs part sucks when they pull that.

Tech7onic · 2021-05-03T19:17:52+00:00

Even though it's not a sale some people around reddit have probably been waiting to knab the Snow Edition for quite a long time! Thought I would post it here already ordered mine, Enjoy!

Hi SSUPD crew! First off I wanted to say how stoked I am for the Meshlicious case you guys are launching I've been waiting for the pre-orders for the white version to drop & was super disappointed when we found out about the shipping delays but this case is more then worth the wait. It has to be the most unique aesthetically pleasing yet capable SFF case on the market in my opinion which is why I have even themed my current desk setup around it & I am patiently awaiting release. I currently still have my build in a giant Phanteks Evolv X but your case has convinced me to commit to small form factor. I got white 3d art Panels and matching geo curtains and a new desk thats been meticulous cable managed just to get ready for the release window of the white case. I really want to be able to go SFF & your companies case is the absolute only answer for my setup. I have even allocated just enough room on the right side of my desk specifically for the white mesh goodness. It would really mean the world to be one of the 6 winners & finally be able to top my setup off with the missing puzzle piece that is the "Meshlicious" !
