you need to use four spaced thumbscrews and four rubber grommet

To place a drive here, you need to use four spaced thumbscrews and four rubber grommet. Slide a grommet over the screw, then put the thumbscrew into the bottom of the drive. With all four screws installed, place the SSD over the mounting replica Patek Philippe 5296G Men's Watch holes then slide it towards the motherboard to secure it in place. This method worked great and helped eliminate cable clutter.Furthermore, since I am only using a single SSD, I opted to remove all of the extra hard drive cages and the extra cooling fans. These are all easily removable as they use a combination of thumbscrews and a few Phillips head screws.

This left the two front 140mm intake fans unrestricted and should result in better overall system cooling.Cable management inside the PC-V2120 was so-so. I do wish Lian Li included a few more access ports on the motherboard tray to help with cable routing, similar to what Corsair did on their Obsidian chassis.After removing the replica Patek Philippe 5108G Men's Watch extra storage bays and fans, I was left with two front 140mm fans, one 120mm exhaust fan and the CPU cooler fan. I opted to wire these up to the built-in fan controller in the front of the case.The fan controller sits above the top 5.25” drive bay and can be a bit difficult to access. I found it best to remove the top drive bay cover, undo the two screws on the front of the controller and pull it out from the drive bay opening.

The module can control up to four fans on the single adjustable dial, perfect for this installation. The problem I ran into, however, is that none of the fan cables were long enough to reach the fan controller. Even the front intake fans wouldn't reach. Lian Li should include enough 3-pin extension cables to actually make the replica Patek Philippe 5115R Men's Watch controller useful. Fortunately, I had some spare extension cables on hand and was able to get everything wired up properly.In order to use the front I/O panel USB 3.0 ports, you need to run the extension cables from the front of the chassis to the rear and plug them into the USB 3.0 ports on your motherboard.
