Hey all, I have a 500mhz imac g3 and I am thinking of installing a blue led
80-120mm/8-12cm/ fan on the inside of the bottom of my case were the
vents are. Is it possible to use molex conecters that came with the fan to hook up
with the HD power supply ? If this is possible how big of a fan can I put in ?

Thanks

If those molex connectors are passthrough (ie, you can connect the HD after the fan connector, then yes. I don't think a fan will fit there, however - it's pretty tight. As an exhaust fan in the top maybe, but the bottom is pretty tight. What do you want to put a fan into a fanless case? I'll just make more noise.
