The Antec 1080 will not run in USB 2.0 (on front) (post #6)
Ok, I have nailed it. I bought the Antec USB 2.0 kit ($13) that fits in a Drive bay. It has a much more robust cable (my suspicions are taking form). I removed the cheapo case mounted USB/Firewire PCB and cables, and installed the new PCB in it's place. Easy to do with one zip tie.
Now I have USB 2.0 on the front and works just fine with my Archos Jukebox and Iomega 40g 2.0 drives.
Losing the front Firewire is irritating, but I have two on the back (BTW, the front Firewire w/ antec's cheapo cable didn't work either)
Therefore, Antec really screwed the pooch on this one. The PLUS1080AMG is supposedly one of their flagship cases, and for $150 you would think they would spring for USB 2.0 capability, when other much cheaper competitors do.
Enough for moaning now.
