secure the top plate to the hard drive bay, as shown in Figure 6-53.

InstallingtheExpansionCards
If you have a video adapter or expansion cards to install, now is the time to do
it. We had only a half-height PCI wireless networking card to install, and we
actually installed it earlier in the build. Then, as we were writing this section,
we realized that we should shift this step to very late in the build. The potential
problem is that a full-length, full-height expansion card may block the sliding
access plate in the bulkhead, making it difficult to route cables from the power
supply chamber to the motherboard chamber.
