There is a random hard drive in this system that is not plugged in for whatever reason. The PSU fan has so much dust clogging it that the fan almost can't spin. Their computer takes over 3 minutes to boot and overheats and has so much dust i can't believe it still works. Also they don't have side panels. And the top HDD is from my old Pentium 3.

Actually thats a few parts from my old PC that I put in for them but I don't have access to this PC 24/7 so when it breaks of gets dusty I can't do anything.

I like the cable routing, its very unorthodox method but it seems to work for him

We had to re-route the power controls to the reset button so we could turn it on. That was years ago.
