Installation Impressions

The Nebula isn’t the easiest case to work with.

The next challenge was screwing the board into place.

The screwdriver we typically use was too long and my Bosch drill didn’t fit.

I had to take a trip out to the shed to find a screwdriver that worked.

A modular power supply is a must.

Xigmatek originally showed off a prototype at Computex 2013 and they used what looked like a non-modular power supply.

The results weren’t pretty.

We went with the modular Enermax Platimax 750W but even that was a difficult fit.

Thankfully, the 3.5" and 2.5" drives slotted into place easily without tools.

With everything connected, we were left with that enormous empty cavity in the middle that we mentioned earlier.

We found ourselves winging it for the most part and for such an unusual case we expected better directions.
