here's a neat trick to do with sata cables,
i coiled one and ran the others and another sleeved cable through the center. also with those hard to sleeve 4pin molex's
(unless you want to take it apart) i used yellow electrical tape and some spiral wrap. for the other yellow sleeve i used u.v reflective sleeving and yellow shrink wrap at both ends
even though this psu was sleeved the sleeving didn't quite reach the end of all the cables so i added some more shrink wrap.
got my girlfriend to help me with this one, i braided three sleeved cables together, ran them up to the top of the case then behind the hdd cage, thats where i send most my wires.
there is another 4pin molex, this time i used blue electrical tape. i also found a nice place for my cathode controller, velcroed to the rail above the mobo.
finnally, turn those hdd's around, most cases can accomodate reversal of them. might just have to get creative with you wire routing to get them in, but it hides two wires per drive and looks way cleaner. for ide cables i personnally prefer the presleeved round ones, i have used flat ones that i taped up with with colored tape and used spiral wrap like i used on the 4pin molex connecters, it looks pretty good too.
