    4. ide to usb cable see link
    http://www.cdrdvdrmedia.com/usb-to-ide-network-cable.html

    5. usb hub with 10 ports

    I installed all the powr source in the case and hdd with the ide to usb cable to each one. all the usb connected to the usb hub. The hub extened one usb to outside the pc case.

    now I need to connect the on/off swith of the case to power supply so with one thouch all the hdd will turn on. and the will be connected to single usb.

    with wire to be connect from the power supply to the power on/off on the case?

    this will let me view all the hdd with one thouch

    note: there are no motherbord, cpu, or ram in the pc case

    4-channel SATA PCI Bracket Backplane

    the only problem is how power all the harddrive since it is
    SATA and the most power suply comes with only 2 SATA

    I need to find someight like a power spliter that can me 4 pin to
    4x SATA power

    can get adapters that convert regular power connector to sata.
