Lian-Li Case Mystery

Barryng · Apr 10, 2003

I just bought a Lian-Li PC-60. Inside the small cardboard box containing the miscellaneous hardware, is a small 5 1/8" X 4" Aluminum plate with three threaded tabs. What is this plate for?

This is not the first PC-60 I purchased. None of the others have come with this plate. I am sure I will be embarassed to have asked this question once I find out its purpose.

I read somewhere that the plate goes in a drive bay somewhere so you can mount 3 1/2" drives. Maybe in that bottom rack? I'm not sure... <shrug>

Guessing here too, never came with any of my Lians. Maybee additional support for the PSU?

Maybe it is for cooling the CPU area like this cool master setup here:

It's for whatever you need it for. The specs make it a great fit just about anywhere in a Lian-Li case, so if you need it, use it. Enjoy!

Its obviously a thingamabob

I found an answer to my question. The plate is intended to fit into the drive cage so the HDD can be mounted horizontally instead of vertically. Thanks for all the responses.

Nice. I didn't know about that before.
