I just bought a SX1040BII case. When I installed the CDRW and hooked up the cable it just barley reached.

I have a DVD and CDRW. I plugged in the CDRW at the very top and that reached ok with a little slack. BUT when I plugged in the DVD I had to pull it really tight! (from below at the motherboard)to get it to reach.

I have the DVD in the bottom where its closest. I also have an inch of slack above it (between it and the CDRW). But below it...( going to the motherboard) its almost like a guintar string (tight). I can't get it any closer. Everything seems to work just fine.. but is this a bad thing. If so.. do they make longer cables like that?

Thanks..
