Will a Digital Doc 5 work with a Antec SX1040B case?

I haven't even looked at it closely yet, but I was thinking about the drive rails on the Antec SX1040B and wondered if the Digital Doc 5 that I have will even work with this case?

Does anyone know for sure?

I dont have the Antec case but I have the digital doc. The only problem I see is the fan in the front not being able to suck much air. Other then that I dont see why it would nt work.
 
fits fine in mine. only issue i had was that i got the 1040 beige and painted it. I used so many layers and so much gloss to get the best surface possible, i failed to realize that it would change the dimensions of the bays and the like. Had to sand it down a bit, but no biggie. The hardest part you'll have, is hiding/poisitioning the various wires 😉
 
I've got it in the top slot of mine. I used black spiral wrap from Advance Auto for the fan wires. The wires from the rear fans I stuffed inside the "rail" the ps sits on. I turned the fan around in the doc to blow out. It vents the heat trapped in the top corner nicely. Thats the only place not properly vented on the 1030/40 cases. I haven't used any thermal sensors yet. I really just use it for a baybus and monitoring fans and volts.
