iceman0124 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 First post! Thanks in advance! I've been using an 800 D for over 4 years now and been pretty happy with it (only major gripe is the front panel USB 3"upgrade" kit) Currently I am in the midst of doing a total system overhaul and I accidentally popped the locking mech off the top bay, and I can get it back on and it "appears" to be correct, but it wont latch and it pops back off if you get slightly aggressive with it. I've spent about 30 min looking for info and just get stuff on the hot swap bays. Any ideas on how to get it back on correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahtlon Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 It should give a click sound if you close it, if not , then I am afraid that the spring inside the lath is broken. Had this problem with a other brand case, every thing was ok, but the panel wouldn't lock in the latch. You could ask Corsair if there is a way that you could buy the latch or bay. Could be a thought to Corsair to sell the latches of there cases on there website, Because those parts are the first that get broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Fitzgerald Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I personally don't trust locking latches for 5.25" bays any farther than I can spit upwind in a stiff breeze. I removed the ones on my 650D and used the four holes on the left side of the cage and the one on the right side in each bay to secure my 5.25" devices. Since removing the latches leaves a bunch of ugly holes, I punched some clearance holes in some acoustic foam for the mounting holes and put it on each side of the cage. You can see it here at post #138. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
