I've seen those Wii cases before, and scoffed that they were utterly useless... Boy was I wrong.

You should connect the usb's power supply with the wii's, since it isn't a usb powered hd,but then what'll be the point in that?What you could do is find a usb power cable that fits into the back outlet of the hd and connect it to the wii, I remember seeing one of those on a laptop cooler,That could make it usb powered if it worked,but use up the 2 usb ports.
Btw this looks awesome, please post tutorial, I have everything even the fan now I just need step by step instructions.

Guys, I got laid off and need cash. If any of you would like to buy this case/stand I'll sell it to you.

I can sell it with my 120 gig hdd in it (but I'd have to delete the games

) or pull my hard drive and just sell the modded case and power supply.

My email is [email protected] if you wanna send me an offer. I can accept paypal or snail mail payment. We can even do the transaction through e-bay if it makes you feel more secure.

just the case?
you know now I wonder to myself after reading the cases review how is this portable if the wii can fall of, though I really want it and at the same time I'm thinking that I have the same setup, usb next to wii and it just doesn't look as pretty, yet its so awesome!

Like I said, I flipped the lid open and my kids played it... alot. It would get very warm to the touch but I wouldn't call it hot. I also have a 1TB My book for my Wii and it doesn't have a fan at all. I have a USB fan I planned to install in the bottom of it but I just haven't found the need to so I held off.

It is neat looking, there is no doubt about that.
