Another nice touch,, You build them clean & well, what type of wires are you using for the usb & front panel headers. Looks like an animal.

I voted 4/10 because:

Nice hardware, but very poorly complimented. Ugly fans, no lights, case is very very bland.

VERY nice hardware. Very clean and simple. Could use a bit more flare.... :p 8/10!
BTW: How did you mount the hard drives? Screws from the buttom of the bay?

Nice, thanks for the info. Looks really nice mounted the way they are. Aurora has the extended front lower fan area which makes it easier to mount the drives the way you mounted them. Very nice.
