The case cable management has a shell, a circuit board, multiple sockets and a cover. The shell has a bottom board and a sidewall. The circuit board is attached securely to the bottom board of the shell. The sockets are mounted through the sidewall of the shell and have multiple terminals connected securely to the circuit board. The cover covers the shell. Multiple power lines are mounted through the sidewall of the shell to connect the circuit board and sockets to a power supply and cables from computer apparatuses are connected to the sockets to receive electric power. Different cables can be distinguished clearly and conveniently for simplified cable routing to avoid confusion and facilitate replacement.

Hard disk adapter

Computer frame

A hard disk drive case has a base, a cover and a fan assembly. The base has an inner surface, a sidewall and an outlet formed through the sidewall of the base. The cover is mounted onto the base and has an inlet formed through the cover. The fan assembly is mounted on the inner surface of the base, is surrounded by the sidewall of the base and has a bracket and a hood. The bracket has an airway and a fan. The airway is flared and communicates with the outlet. The fan is mounted in the airway. The hood corresponds to and covers the airway to form a chamber communicating with the outlet and has a hole defined through the hood, corresponding to the fan and allowing the fan to extract air from the inlet and to guide air toward the outlet efficiently.
