I am building a new computer, but it happened that I ran out of money for the construction without the case (the economic crisis in my country is not helping either), so I had to improvise on a case from HP that I already had. As you can see in the photo, there is not much space left for the HDs, because I had to cut the bays, and I also have nowhere to put the extra cables from the power supply. I chose to use the "custom" watercooler because I already had the parts at home and also because AM4 aircoolers are very expensive for me. I would like suggestions for how to secure the hard drives inside the case and also suggestions for improving the construction. (The power supply is not located at the bottom of the case, it is the motherboard that is mounted upside down)

well if it dose not have a window then cables wont matter. getting airflow to the rad would be a good idea i dont no what has been done to do so. also you can lap the cpu block to make it flater. maybe remove the the pcie covers. passably revering the pus and cutting a hole up top for the psu so the gpu dose not fight with the psu for air. maybe an fan up top blowing at the gpu. or add a fan to the side panel.  you might be able to mount an hhd to the top or the back. you can buy pci hhd holders but that cost money. if you can get a hold of an ssd that you can mount any ware. but hhd is best for the price and size i still use one but one day the nosy thing will be gone... it sits like 10 feet away from the cases in an external case...
