PC-P50 Drive Cage

Nice review.....just one comment though. I agree that the power supply might be in the way if you try to remove a single drive from the inside of the case. But you probably should have mentioned that the entire hard drive cage assembly can be removed from the machine through the front panel in just a minute or two. Then you can add or remove individual drives without any interference.

thank you for the comment. Yes you are right, the harddrive's could be removed from the Frontside, but this is not what Lian Li intended to do.
This is, in my opinion, just a workaround. Actually in this case you have to remove the frontpanel, then the sidepanel, unplug the harddrives from the side, etc.... hmmm really not as userfriendly as it should be.
We have tested the case and installed a extra small power supply and even then there is not enough space to remove the hd's. Then we moved the harddrive cage to the mid section and removing the harddrive from the mid section will collide with the mainboard. So I think Lian Li has to redesign the PC-P50 again and hopefully we will get a PC-P51...
It would be really easy to fix the problem with e.g. a hot swap cage from Lian Li, this would make the case just a bit more expensive.
