Lian Li PC-A17A - drive cage be removed from the front?

Can the drive cage come out from the front of the Lian Li PC-A17A case after disconnecting the cables from the back of the drives?



I need to know this because my graphics card is 267mm, while the case can only take a maximum of 270mm card (my card will just about slide in).

But as you can see, the drives will be impossible to take out from the inside of the case unless I remove the graphics card first. I would be able to only take the drive cage out from the front of the case. Is this possible? Someone with this case should know and I can't seem to find the answer anywhere on the web. All it says everywhere is that the "drive bay can be removed."

If the drive can be removed from the front of case, then I will buy the Lian Li PC-A17A.

Otherwise I have no choice but to get the Lian-Li PC-8NWX because the drives cage is rotated at 90 degrees.

Nevermind. I found the answer here:

go to 2:50.

It's not exactly the same case, but I believe most Lian Li cases have similar functions and the drive bay looks the same as that of the A17A. Therefore it should be removable the same way.
