Hi there I have some trouble figuring out how to set up a hot swappable case.
I have the antec p280 case in mind.
http://www.vortez.net/articles_pages/antec_p280_review,5.html
It has 6 hot-swap bays for 3.5" drives. I have a motherboard with 6 SATA connectors.
What I cannot understand is what do the hot swap trays in this case plug into? When I look at the pictures I see only empty space behind the hots-wap trays. Is there some additional piece of hardware I need to install behind these trays that the SATA cables, connected to the motherboard can plug into and then the HDDs into this "piece" of hardware, whereby i can just pull them out or shove them in to connect?
Thank you for the enlightenment.
